Abstract:
A temperature sensor may include at least one cell. Each one of the at least one cell may include a bi-stable flip-flop having a first branch and a second branch. The first branch may include an asymmetry element. A processor is configured to receive, from each one of the at least one cell, an output signal indicative of an operational state of the bi-stable flip-flop and to determine a temperature based on the received output signals.
