The output of 57 is input to the base 52
This is constituted by a temperature signal generating means 59 for converting the temperature into a temperature signal.

The operation of the above configuration will be described. The temperature of the base 52 is detected by the temperature detecting means 54, and the temperature converting means group 5 comprising a plurality of temperature converting means.

The output of each temperature conversion unit of the temperature conversion unit group 55 and the output of the reference setting unit 56 are compared by the temperature comparison unit 57 to determine the temperature of the base 52.

Hereinafter, a detailed description will be given with reference to FIGS. 8 and 9. 8, the thermistor x is the temperature detecting means 54 in FIG. This thermistor x and a resistor a,
b and c are connected in series via switches SW1, SW2, and SW3, and the switches SW1, SW2, and SW3 are sequentially turned on and off in chronological order. Means (1) is constituted, and the thermistor x and the resistor b constitute the temperature conversion means (2) of FIG. Vcc is the power supply voltage of this circuit, and Vout is the output voltage.
This corresponds to the output (voltage) of (2).

In the above configuration, the reference setting means 5 shown in FIG.
Assuming that a constant voltage corresponding to the reference voltage which is the output of No. 6 is s, there are resistance values p, q, and r of the thermistor x that satisfy the following relationship with respect to the resistors a, b, and c.

[0007]

(Equation 1)

[0008]

(Equation 2)

[0009]

(Equation 3)

That is, the switches SW1, SW2, SW
3 are sequentially turned on in time series and only the resistors a, b, and c are connected, and if the output voltage Vout becomes s, the resistance of the thermistor x can be specified as p, q, r, and the resistance p, q, r
Can be determined as the temperature of the base 52 in FIG.

According to this concept, the temperature of the thermistor x can be actually determined as follows. In FIG. 9, the resistance value of the thermistor x is x1. The output Vout when the resistors a and b are connected is V1 and V2.
V2 corresponds to the temperature conversion means (1) and the temperature conversion means (2) in FIG. 7, respectively.

At this time, the outputs V1 and V2 are selected so as to be lower than the reference voltage s of the reference setting means 56 in FIG. Then, the resistance i (the temperature conversion means (I) (I <
N)) and the output V at the time of the next resistance i + 1.
When out is Vi and Vi + 1, respectively, Vi <Vi
The resistors i and i + 1 are selected so that s, Vi + 1> s.

In this way, the resistances a and b are connected in order, the output Vout at each time is compared with the reference voltage s, and the magnitude relation between the output Vout and the reference voltage s between the resistance i and the resistance i + 1. Is reversed, it can be determined that the resistance value of the thermistor x is near x1.

In addition, when the resistances a to i are V1 to Vi> s,
The resistance may be selected so that Vi + 1 <s at the resistance i + 1. Then, by the output of the temperature comparing means 57 in FIG.
The temperature information of the base 52 is output from the temperature signal generating means 59 as a temperature signal.
