ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a thermometry device which measures temperature using an electronic calculator system. The device includes a resistor whose resistance value varies depending upon temperature, an oscillator providing a wave-form oscillating at a frequency which is dependent upon temperature, a clock generator providing reference clock pulses and a counter for counting the clock pulses within a length of time as defined by the frequency of the waveform divided by a factor. Temperature-related information is obtained from the results of the counting.
