Hello,

At what temperature the calibration value TSENSE_CAL1 correspond ? In the datasheet it say 30�C but in the STM32L1_Discovery_Firmware_Pack_V1.0.3, it use 25�C (STM32L1_Discovery_Firmware_Pack_V1.0.3\Projects\AN3964-Temperature_sensor\src\main.c). Which one is correct ? #stm32l162-temperature-sensor-cal

And the datasheet gives a pointer to the chip's sensor voltage at 110 C while the reference manual says 90 C.

ST occasionally monitors these posts, after talking to the design folks they may post a response. Until then I suggest you take a reading at each end of your temperature range of interest using a plastic bag in ice water, warm thumb on the chip and board underneath, or whatever, and interpolate in between. That will work for a student assignment. For a production run, it may be easier to ADC a board negative temperature coefficient resister network. Cheers, Hal
