Abstract
A storage device including a non-volatile memory for storing data, a temperature sensor having resistance that changes according to temperature of the temperature sensor, and a temperature measurement circuit including a plurality of transistors, which are turned on or off based on a current of the temperature sensor and have different threshold voltages from one another. The temperature management circuit may be configured to apply a current to the temperature sensor and generate information indicating the temperature of the temperature sensor or indicating damage to the temperature sensor based on an output current obtained from the plurality of transistors.
