It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," and the like in the description and claims of the present invention and in the drawings described above are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the data so used is interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the invention described herein are capable of operation in other sequences than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprises," "comprising," and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, system, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of steps or elements is not necessarily limited to those steps or elements expressly listed, but may include other steps or elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.
Fig. 1 is a schematic circuit structure diagram of a temperature sensor according to an embodiment of the present invention, and referring to fig. 1, the temperature sensor includes: the temperature coefficient voltage generating circuit comprises a negative temperature coefficient voltage generating circuit 10, a first charge storage module 11, a second charge storage module 12, a zero temperature coefficient voltage generating circuit 13, an operational amplifier 14 and a switch module; the negative temperature coefficient voltage generating circuit 10 is configured to write a first negative temperature coefficient voltage into the first end of the first charge storage module 11 in a first stage of the same cycle, and write a second negative temperature coefficient voltage into the first end of the first charge storage module 11 in a second stage; the second end of the first charge storage module 11 is electrically connected with the inverting input end of the operational amplifier and the first end of the second charge storage module 12; the zero temperature coefficient voltage generating circuit 13 is configured to generate a zero temperature coefficient voltage VREF; the non-inverting input end of the operational amplifier 14 is connected with a zero temperature coefficient voltage VREF, and the output end of the operational amplifier 14 is electrically connected with the output end OUT of the temperature sensor; the switching module is configured to, in a first stage, turn on an output terminal of the operational amplifier 14 and an inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier 14, and write a zero temperature coefficient voltage VREF into a second terminal of the second charge storage module 12; the switch module is further configured to conduct the output terminal of the operational amplifier 14 to the second terminal of the second charge storage module 12 in the second phase.
Specifically, the negative temperature coefficient voltage generating circuit 10 may generate two negative temperature coefficient voltages, that is, a first negative temperature coefficient voltage and a second negative temperature coefficient voltage, by using a bipolar transistor, where the first negative temperature coefficient voltage and the second negative temperature coefficient voltage are different. The negative temperature coefficient voltage generating circuit 10 can specifically obtain a negative temperature coefficient voltage according to a voltage formula between a base electrode and an emitter electrode of the triode, and a positive temperature coefficient voltage can be obtained through the difference between the two negative temperature coefficient voltages; as known to those skilled in the art, the ptc voltage cannot be directly used for outputting the temperature voltage because the ptc voltage only contains the slope of the temperature voltage output formula and does not contain the intercept of the temperature voltage output formula; the positive temperature coefficient voltage and the temperature-independent zero temperature coefficient voltage can be input to the operational amplifier 14, and a temperature voltage output formula including intercept and slope can be obtained. The first charge storage module 11 may be a capacitor, and the second charge storage module 12 may also be a capacitor.
In this embodiment, each period of the temperature measurement includes two phases, i.e., a first phase and a second phase, and during the first phase, the negative temperature coefficient voltage generating circuit 10 applies a first negative temperature coefficient voltage (hereinafter referred to as "negative temperature coefficient voltage")VBEL) is written into the first end of the first charge storage module 11, and at this time, the inverting input end of the operational amplifier 14 and the output end thereof are turned on, so that the voltage at the inverting input end of the operational amplifier 14 is VREF + VOS, that is, the voltage at the second end of the first charge storage module 11 is VREF + VOS, the voltage difference between the two ends of the first charge storage module 11 at the first stage is (VREF + VOS-VBEL), the stored charge is C0 (VREF + VOS-VBEL), where VOS is the dc offset voltage of the operational amplifier 14, and C0 is the capacitance of the first charge storage module 11. In the first stage, the voltage at the first terminal of the second charge storage module 12 is also VREF + VOS, and the voltage at the second terminal of the second charge storage module 12 is VREF, so that the charge stored in the second charge storage module 12 at this time is (VREF + VOS-VREF) × C1= VOS × C1, and C1 is the capacitance of the second charge storage module 12. In the second stage, the voltage of the first end of the first charge storage module 11 becomes a second negative temperature coefficient voltage (hereinafter referred to as VBEH), and the voltage of the second end thereof is still VREF + VOS, so that the voltage of the two ends of the first charge storage module 11 becomes (VREF + VOS-VBEH) at this time, and the charge stored in the first charge storage module 11 becomes C0 (VREF + VOS-VBEH); in the second stage, the voltage of the first terminal of the second charge storage module 12 is still VREF + VOS, and the voltage of the second terminal of the second charge storage module 12 becomes Vout, where Vout is the output voltage of the operational amplifier, and the charge on the second charge storage module 12 in the second stage is (VREF + VOS-Vout) × C1. According to the principle of charge conservation, that is, the total charge amount of the first charge storage module 11 and the second charge storage module 12 cannot change abruptly, in other words, the total charge of the first charge storage module 11 and the second charge storage module 12 in the first phase is equal to the total charge of the two in the second phase, so that there is C0 × (VREF + VOS-VBEL) + VOS × C1= C0 × (VREF + VOS-VBEH) + (VREF + VOS-Vout) × C1; can obtain

According to the technical scheme of the embodiment, different negative temperature coefficient voltages are written into the first charge storage module through the negative temperature coefficient voltage generating circuit at different stages, and different voltages are written into the second charge storage module through the switch module at different stages, so that a temperature voltage formula containing a slope and an intercept can be obtained, the direct-current offset voltage of the operational amplifier is compensated, and the precision of the temperature sensor is greatly improved. In addition, a chopper amplifier is not required to be introduced, the circuit design is simplified, and non-ideal factors are eliminated, so that the measurement accuracy is not reduced.

In the first stage t1, the first switching unit SW1 and the third switching unit SW3 are turned on, the first transistor QL generates a first negative temperature coefficient voltage VBEL, and writes the first negative temperature coefficient voltage VBEL into the first end of the first charge storage module 11, and at this time, the fifth switching unit SW5 is turned on, and the inverting input end of the operational amplifier 14 is turned on with the output end thereof, so that the voltage at the inverting input end of the operational amplifier 14 is VREF + VOS, that is, the voltage at the second end of the first charge storage module 11 is VREF + VOS, then the voltage difference between the two ends of the first charge storage module 11 in the first stage is (VREF + VOS-VBEL), and the stored charge is C0 (VREF + VOS-VBEL). In the first stage, the voltage of the first terminal of the second charge storage module 12 is also VREF + VOS, and since the seventh switching unit SW7 is turned on and the voltage of the second terminal of the second charge storage module 12 is VREF, the second charge storage is performed at this timeThe charge stored on the memory block 12 is (VREF + VOS — VREF) × C1= VOS × C1.
