Temperature Measurement 
Measurement of absolute temperature uses the on-chip temperature sensor while applying the following formula:

In the above formula T is the temperature in °C, N(T) is the ADC count at temperature T, N
n
 is the ADC count at 
25°C, S
n
 is the sensitivity in LSB/°C as stated in the Electrical Specifications, and T

 is +25°C.  
Example: At 25°C a temperature sensor value of 518,203,584 (N
n
) is read by the ADC by a 71M6521FE in the 64-pin 
LQFP package. At an unknown temperature T the value 449.648.000 is read at (N(T)). The absolute temperature is 
then determined by dividing both N
n
 and N(T) by 512 to account for the 9-bit shift of the ADC value and then inserting 
the results into the above formula, using –2220 for LSB/°C:

It is recommended to base temperature measurements on TEMP_RAW_X which is the sum of two consecutive 
temperature readings thus being higher by a factor of two than the raw sensor readings. 
Temperature Compensation 
Temperature Coefficients: The internal voltage reference is calibrated during device manufacture. 
For the 71M6521DE/FE, the temperature coefficients TC1 and TC2 are given as constants that represent typical 
component behavior (in µV/°C and µV/°C
2
, respectively). 
For the 71M6521DH, the temperature characteristics of the chip are measured during production and then stored in 
the fuse registers TRIMBGA, TRIMBGB, TRIMT and TRIMM[2:0]. TC1 and TC2 can be derived from the fuses by using 
the relations given in the Electrical Specifications section.  
Since TC1 and TC2 are given in µV/°C and µV/°C
2
, respectively, the value of the VREF voltage (1.195 V) has 
to be taken into account when transitioning to PPM/°C and PPM/°C
2
.  This means that PPMC = 
26.84*TC1/1.195, and PPMC2 = 1374*TC2/1.195. 
Close examination of the electrical specification (see Table  61) for the parts with regular accuracy reveals that the 
achievable deviation is not strictly ±40 PPM/°C over the whole temperature range: Only for temperatures for which T-
22 > 40 (i.e. T > 62°C) or for which T-22 < -40 (i.e. T < -18°C), the data sheet states ±40 PPM/°C. For temperatures 
between -18°C and +62°C, the error should be considered constant at ±1,600 PPM, or ±0.16%. 
Similar considerations apply to the high-accuracy parts (see Table 62), where the error around the calibration 
temperature should be considered constant at ±800 PPM, or ±0.08%.
