Abstract

A determination is made if a temperature of a system has exceeded a hot threshold or a cold threshold. At room temperature, a first adjustment is determined for first nominal settings. The first nominal settings are for a first input to a first comparator. At room temperature, a second adjustment is determined for second nominal settings. The second nominal settings are for a first input to a second comparator. The temperature is monitored, during normal operation of the system, using a temperature dependent voltage with the first comparator adjusted with the first adjustment and second comparator adjusted with the second adjustment.
