Abstract :
We have developed a hybrid-type temperature sensor using n-type low-temperature processed poly-Si thin-film transistors. The advantages of the hybrid-type temperature sensor are that the large temperature dependence of the off-leakage current can be utilized, and simultaneously only a digital circuit is required to count the digital pulse.
