Abstract
Described are a temperature sensor, a semiconductor device, and a method of measuring a temperature of a sample. One embodiment of the temperature sensor may comprise a probe circuit, the probe circuit having a thermal operational range. The temperature sensor may further comprise a thermal resistor separating the probe circuit from a sample. The temperature sensor may further comprise a heating circuit adapted to maintain the probe circuit within the thermal operational range.
