A BJT-Based CMOS Temperature Sensor with Duty-Cycle-Modulated Output and ±0.5°C (3σ) Inaccuracy from -40 °c to 125 °c

This brief presents a 0.65% relative inaccuracy CMOS temperature sensor with a duty-cycle-modulated (DCM) output. It uses a BJT-based front-end to generate a proportional to absolute temperature voltage (V_{PTAT}) and a complementary to absolute temperature voltage (V_{CTAT}), which are then modulated to a digital-friendly duty-cycle output....
