Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 0:
1. A temperature detection circuit comprising:
a first temperature sensor unit that includes a first temperature sensor configured to detect a first temperature of the target object and that is configured to output a first analog signal indicating the first temperature of the target object;
a first output port configured to receive the first analog signal from the first temperature sensor and output the first analog signal representing an analog temperature value for the target object;
a second temperature sensor unit that includes a second temperature sensor configured to detect a second temperature of the target object and that is configured to output a second analog signal indicating the second temperature of the target object, the second temperature sensor being different from the first temperature sensor;
an analogue digital (AD) converter configured to convert the second analog signal into a digital signal and to output the digital signal indicating the second temperature of the target object; and
a second output port configured to receive the first analog signal from the AD converter and output the digital signal representing a digital temperature value of the target object that is independent of the analog temperature value.
