[FAQ] DP83TG720S-Q1: How to maximize temperature sensor accuracy

Part Number: DP83TG720S-Q1

Tool/software:

Section 7.3.1.4 of the datasheet outlines the procedure to use the inbuilt temperature sensor in the DP83TG720 PHY. 

In order to maximize accuracy, please ensure the following:

  1. Sample "temperature_output_code" at 25C and use it as "temperature_output_mean_code", instead of using value 161.
  2. Use a value of 1.0 for "slope_temperature_sensor" instead of 1.5
