Abstract In this article the basic operating principles of CMOS smart temperature
sensors are demonstrated. In this article a CMOS temperature sensor with
sigma-delta analog to digital converter (ADC) is proposed, which have widespread
use due to their low cost, low power consumption and small size. The sigma-delta
ADC was implemented by the switch capacitor circuit. For the implementation of
sensor high-performance signal conditioning circuits are required as interfacing
circuit and for these bias circuits have been designed. The accuracy of sensor is
mainly limited by offset and 1/f noise, which is canceled by the autozeroing circuit
with the help of switch capacitor circuit. The sensor circuit is designed with biasing
subcircuit for controlling the curvature correction.

1 Introduction
Many years ago people had great desire to know about temperature. However,
many types of temperature sensors are invented, but in recent years the automatic
operated instrument demanded for temperature controller [1, 2]. In aerospace to
reduce the fuel consumption in central heating and cooling system is essential for
monitoring the temperature. To communicate with computer, a digital signal is
required and this is done by Analog to digital converter (ADC) [3]. This kind of
