Sensor accuracy

   Dear Sirs,

The datasheet of the LMT70A shows a typical error of +/- 0.05C (@ 20C to 42C) and a maximum error of +/- 0.13C (@ 20C to 42C).

I need to simulate the errors of a batch of these devices:

1) Should I generate random numbers with normal distribution?

2) What value should I use to mean and standard deviation of this distribution?

3) Should I delete all the generated erros out of the range -0.13C to +0.13C (sensors out of this range are discarded at the factory)? Or +/- 0.13C is +/- 3 Standard Deviations?

Thank you.
