Abstract
A system may include a device configured to be implanted within a recipient and that includes an integrated circuit. The integrated circuit may include a first node configured to provide a bandgap reference voltage and a second node configured to provide a CTAT voltage. The first node may be coupled to a first input of an ADC and the second node may be coupled to a second input of the ADC. The system may also include a processor communicatively coupled to an output of the ADC. The processor may be configured to determine, based on the output of the ADC, the CTAT voltage. The processor may be further configured to determine, based on the CTAT voltage, a temperature of the device.
