ABSTRACT:
A temperature sensor circuit is provided which is adapted to provide an indication of the temperature on a chip. The sensor includes a bandgap temperature sensor which is sequentially driven by a plurality of current sources. The current sources are shuffled so as to minimize problems associated with matching currents.
