Abstract

A calibration method of a temperature sensor is provided. The temperature sensor having a current source and a ring oscillator generating a square pulse signal with a temperature-dependent square pulse frequency. The acquisition of a first square pulse frequency measurement at a first temperature from the square pulse signal forms a first measurement point. A second square pulse frequency measurement at a second temperature from the second square pulse signal forms a second measurement point. The determination of the relation data being representative of an affine relation between square pulse frequency measurements and temperatures. The affine relation being defined by a used proportionality coefficient modified with respect to a measured proportionality coefficient of a measured affine relation linking the first measurement point and the second measurement point.
