| Zusammenfassung: | A temperature sensor includes a resonator; a first oscillation circuit to oscillate the resonator in a first oscillation mode; a second oscillation circuit to oscillate the resonator in a second oscillation mode different from the first oscillation mode; a switching circuit to connect the resonator to the first oscillation circuit or the second oscillation circuit; a control circuit to control the switching circuit so that the first oscillation circuit and the second oscillation circuit are alternately connected to the resonator; and a temperature information output circuit to generate information representing a frequency difference between a signal output from the first oscillation circuit kept in a status of being connected to the resonator and a signal output from the second oscillation circuit kept in the status of being connected to the resonator on the basis of these signals and to output the frequency difference information as temperature information on the resonator. |
