Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
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.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A semiconductor device comprising: a first comparator having a first input that receives a temperature dependent voltage, an output to indicate if the device has a temperature that is below a low threshold temperature, and a second input having associated therewith a first nominal voltage; a second comparator having a first input that receives the temperature dependent voltage, an output to indicate if the device has a temperature that exceeds a high thres…
