Hi
Can you please advise if the temp. sensor reading is for the device junction temperature or other part within the die?
Thanks

Temperature sensor is located near the die edge/corner adjacent to the DACs.

The temperature sensor outputs the temperature data in 8-bit, 2's complement format.
For example, 0 degree corresponds to b0000-0000, 25 degree corresponds to b0001-1001. The MSB indicates the positive or negative sign. For instance, -2 is represented by b1111- 1110.
To calculate the negative temperatures, first calculate the values as you would for any binary to decimal conversion, and then subtract the decimal from 2^8 or 256 (i.e. b1111-1110 = d254. 254-256 = -2 degrees).
If you have more questions, please feel free to let us know.
Hi,
The temp sensor is on the chip (die) itself, so it is reading the temperature of the die.
