The invention relates to a method for determining the temperature in the environment of an
assembly comprising at least one passive component (6), the passive component being integrated into a single-layer or multi-layer
assembly (22), comprising the steps of: - determining the geometric
inductance of the passive component (6), from the dimensions of the passive component (6); - measuring the
inductance of the passive component (6), called the total
inductance, the passive component (6) being used in a temperature range such that it is in a superconducting state; - determining the
kinetic inductance of the passive component (6), from the total inductance and the geometric inductance; - determining the temperature from the
kinetic inductance of the component. Figure for the abstract: Fig. 2
