Abstract

A temperature sensor includes a membrane supported by a substrate and a circuit having elements for a substrate electrical resistance indicative of the temperature of a substrate and a membrane electrical resistance indicative of the temperature of a membrane. The substrate resistance and the membrane resistance are arranged in a bridge configuration to facilitate measurement of a differential voltage responsive to temperature change. The resulting temperature signal includes a first varying portion and a second varying portion. A controller receives a temperature signal from sensor, eliminates the second varying portion and generates a temperature value based on the based on the first varying portion. In this manner, the sensor provides an improved, fast response to changes in the surrounding temperature.
