Figure 16. Error Caused by Nonideality Factor Figure 17. Errors Induced when Temperature
Sensor is Not Calibrated to Typical Nonideality
Figure 18. Compensating for an Untargeted Nonideality Factor
Temperature errors associated with nonideality may be reduced in a specific temperature range of concern
through use of the offset registers (11h and 12h). Figure 18 shows how the offset register may be used to
compensate for the nonideality errors shown in Figure 17. For the case of nonideality=1.008, the offset register
was set to 0.5°C resulting in the calculated residual error as shown in Figure 18. This offset has resulted in an
error of less than 0.05°C for the temperatures measured in the critical range between 60 to 100°C. This method
yields a first order correction factor.
Please send an email to hardware.monitor.team@nsc.com requesting further information on our recommended
setting of the offset register for different processor types.
