Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, because the manufacturing process of the temperature sensing circuit itself varies, even if the ambient temperature is the same, the value output from the chip is different, so high-precision temperature compensation corresponding to the ambient temperature cannot be performed.

Abstract

A reference voltage generating circuit 110 generates a reference voltage. A fuse circuit (regulating circuit) 120 divides the reference voltage by resistance to output a first regulatable divided voltage. A current generating circuit 130 generates a current according to the first divided voltage as a gate voltage. A voltage generating circuit 140 has a diode element generating an analogue voltage according to the current. The analogue voltage can be outputted through an operational amplifier circuit 142 connected as a voltage follower. The analogue voltage is converted into a digital value by an A / D converter circuit 150. The converter circuit 150 compares a second divided voltage controlled by a variable control circuit 154 by using a count value of a counter 156 with the analogue voltage by a comparator 152, and then a register 160 acquires a result of comparison on the basis of a result of the comparison.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a temperature sensing circuit, a semiconductor integrated circuit provided with the temperature sensing circuit, and a method for adjusting the temperature sensing circuit. Background technique [0002] In general, the display control circuit of a display device using an electro-optical element needs to consider the temperature dependence of the electro-optical element. Taking the liquid crystal in an electro-optical element as an example, if the ambient temperature is different, the transmittance of the liquid crystal under the same voltage will also be different. Therefore, the display control circuit needs to perform temperature compensation and apply a voltage corresponding to the ambient temperature. [0003] In this context, the display control circuit often has a built-in temperature sensing circuit. In this case, the temperature sensor circuit is used to adjust to obtain the sensor output at the reference ambient temperature...
