TMP468: GaAs Diode as Temperature Sensor

Part Number: TMP468

Hello,

Is it possible to measure the temperature of a GaAs diode with the TMP468?   I don't need the reading to be compensated by the n factor, but I do need it to be linear over a temperature range from 0 oC to 100oC.

Also, is the bandgap voltage of GaAs vs silicon a significant factor when measuring temperature?
