A temperature sensor with a plurality of temperature sense points based on a bandgap reference circuit providing negative temperature coefficient reference voltages and a positive temperature coefficient reference voltage. All negative temperature coefficient reference voltages have the same slope and the same spacing from each other. The intercept points between the negative temperature coefficient reference voltages and the positive temperature coefficient reference voltage determine the temperature sense points. Efficient calibration of the spacing of the temperature sense points is provided by a tap on a programmable resistor in the positive temperature coefficient reference circuit. Efficient calibration of the absolute temperature is provided by second programmable resistors in a circuit driven by two current sources. The calibration of one temperature point equally applies to all other second programmable resistors.
