In other words, Fig. 1 show voltage curve 100,102 together with charging 106, it is integrated(Integrieren)112 or Say 122 these steps of the electric discharge 112 carried out by the tunnel current and optional reset.Here it is shown that with charging rank The time/voltage chart of section 106, integration phase 112 and optional reseting stage 122.Will be described in the charging stage 106 Electric capacity is charged to predetermined current potential VDD108.In the integration phase 112, the voltage 104 of the electric capacity is depending on temperature From the current potential V under degreeDD108 drop to reference potential V0.Decline as the said index of voltage 104.The decline 112 Time constant depends on temperature.The temperature T1, T2Bigger, the current potential 104 is with regard to declining faster.In the integration phase 112 The middle input predetermined measurement moment 114.At the measurement moment 114, the electric capacity is in different temperature T1And T2When have Different current potentials 116,118.Make the capacitance short-circuit in the reseting stage 122 and the current potential 104 rapidly declines To zero.
In order to improve sensitiveness, the current potential V can be improvedDD.But, this is by the metal-insulator-halfbody body knot The limitation of the breakdown voltage of the insulator layer of structure.The voltage in the range of 5V is enough in principle.
Fig. 2 shows the flow chart for the method 200 for being used for measurement temperature according to a kind of embodiment of the present invention.Methods described 200 can use with as electric capacity come metal-insulator connecting, with the automatic discharging depending on temperature-partly lead The sensor of body structure gets off implementation.Methods described 200 have determine step 202, the step of the determination in using Determination represents the temperature information of the temperature of the sensor under the current potential that the measurement moment is carried on the electric capacity.
The step 204 of the charging before the measurement moment is performed in one embodiment, the step of the charging It is middle that the electric capacity is charged to take-off potential.The current potential is detected on the electric capacity at the measurement moment.
In another embodiment, the separated step 206 before the measurement moment is performed, in the separated step The electric capacity is at least connected in side without current potential at the separated moment in rapid.Here, separating moment and the measurement described Waiting one measures the duration between moment.
In one embodiment, there is methods described 200 one to follow the step of the electric discharge after the measurement moment 208.In the step 208 of the electric discharge, the electric capacity is discharged into equilibrium potential.
