Method for characterizing temperature sensor, involves supplying amount of energy to temperature sensor to effect change in temperature, where change of resistance value of temperature sensor is detected

摘要

The method (600) involves supplying (610) an amount of energy to a temperature sensor to effect the change in temperature. The change of the resistance value of the temperature sensor is detected (620), where the change of the resistance value is caused by the temperature change. A characterizing information is determined (630) by using the resistance value of the temperature sensor to characterize the temperature sensor. The amount of energy is actively applied, particularly by a heat chamber or by a heater blower or by a temperature bath or by inductive heating. An independent claim is included for a device for use in a system for characterizing a temperature sensor.
