LM20: Temperature sensing point

Part Number: LM20

Hi, Staff

LM20 Temperature sensing point

Q1:
Is the temperature where the LM20 is sensing is the surface of the package of the device or lead terminals connected to the board?

Q2:
If you are sensing at the lead terminal,
In the case of the SC70 package, we can measure the temperature around the device and the temperature of the board.
However
In the case of DSBGA, since the terminal is on the back of the package, it is considered that only the board temperature is measured.
Is the location of temperature measurement limited due to the difference in package?

best regards
