Abstract
A thermal cycle detector includes a first temperature reservoir, a second first temperature reservoir, first thermal barrier, and a plurality of first electrical conductors spanning the first thermal barrier. The first temperature reservoir includes a first transistor, and the second temperature reservoir includes a second transistor. The first thermal barrier is disposed between the first temperature reservoir and the second temperature reservoir. The plurality of first electrical conductors is configured to provide an electrical power source for the thermal cycle detector in response to a thermal gradient across the plurality of first electrical conductors.
