INTR ODUCTION Engineering is an inno v ati v e field that its origin ideas leading to e v erything, including biology and medical area. Applicat ion of engineering in biology and medical area is then called biomedical e n gi neering. The purpose of this field is combining the design and problem solving skills of engineering with medical and biology sciences to adv ance health care treatment, including diagnosis, monitoring, and therap y [1]. In the recent years, there is a l o t of research focus on biomedical engineering. This topic is becoming interesting and challenging due to t he increase of system comple xity , human population and its distrib ution. One of the most important components in biomedical engineering is sensor . This component is v ery impor - tant because it is directly connected to ph ysical phenomenon [2, 3]. In man y biomedical applications, sensor plays a crucial role to collect data from man y objects such as human body temperature, en vironment humidity and oxygen le v els in the air . The often utilized sensor in biomedical applications is temperature sensor , because temperature is a highly important parameter to monitor , identify , or control man y conditions in biomedical field, such as diagnos- ing human disease, temperature monitoring in operating rooms and pre v enting bacteria gro wth in some places. By kno wing the useful of temperature sensor in man y biomedical applications, the a v ailability of a temperature sensor which can be used in v arious biomedical applications is highly recommended. The problem is dif ferent biomedical application has dif ferent temperature range to be measured. It means that the sensor must ha v e wide temperature range. Ho we v er , wide temperature range causes the resolution of its digital data decreases. T o k eep the resolution high, high-bit analog to digital (ADC) must be applied. Ne v ertheless, it will decrease the speed and increase the po wer consumption. Furthermore, in biomedical applications, not only high sensiti vity temperature sensor is needed b ut also lo w v oltage and lo w po wer temperature sensor is strongly required [4], [5], [6]. A lo w po wer and lo w v oltage temperature sensor has been proposed and reported [7], [8].

IJECE ISSN: 2088-8708 947 general achie v es lo w po wer c o ns umption, b ut it has small sensiti vity . The other high sensiti vity temperature sensors are also proposed [9], [10]. Ho we v er , these sensors are not lo w v oltage and it consumes high po wer . The other problem is that man y con v entional on-chip temperature sensor circuits use BJT ( V be ) to sense temperature [4], [9], [11], [12]. The problem of BJT is not able to be implemented in the same chip in man y standard CMOS processes. This means that cost of f abrication will increase. The last problem is that man y cores of temperature sensor circuits use e xternal bias circ uits or high v alue resistor [8], [9], [13]. These require lar ge chip areas. A lo w v oltage and lo w po wer temperature sensor circuit with digital output for health care monitoring system has been proposed in [14]. This sensor can achie v e lo w v oltage, lo w po wer , high sensiti vity and high resolution. Ho we v er , this sensor is special for health care monitoring system whose temperature range only 33 °C to 45 °C, and it can not to be used for other biomedical applications with dif ferent temperature range. This paper proposes a ne w temperature sensor circuits based on pre vious w ork [14] with addition of pro- grammable temperature range digitali zation. In this paper , the analysis of the circuits, simulation results and the measurement of f abricated temperature sensor core are reported in detail. This paper is or g anized as follo ws. The pre vious research and impro v ement are presented in Sect. 2. In Sect. 3, the simulation results of the designed circuit and measurement of f abrication temperature sensor core are presented. Finally , Sect. 4 concludes this paper . 2. PREVIOUS RESEARCH AND IMPR O VEMENT In this section, the pre vious research [14] and its impro v ement are presented in detail. Fig. 1 s ho ws the block diagram of the proposed temperature sensor in pre vious research. This proposed temperature sensor consists of some sub circuits: sensor core circuit [3], v oltage t o current con v erter (VIC) circuit, 1/x circuit, current to time con v erter (ITC) circuit [15], and counter . Figure 1. Block diagram of the proposed inte grated temperature sensor with digital output 2.1. T emperatur e Sensor Cor e Figure 2 sho ws the t emperature sensor core circuit. The temperature sensor core implementation consists of sensor block and start-up block. The start-up block ( M s 1 , M s 2 and M s 3 ) is circuit to force turn on the sensor block, and t his block does not af fect the output v oltage. The sensor block is constructed using M 1 - M 5 . Where, M 1 , M 2 and M 3 are operated in weak in v ersion re gion, whereas M 4 and M 5 can be operated in both weak and strong in v ersion re gion. I ds of the MOSFET operate in the weak in v ersion re gion is represented by the follo wing equation.

The capacitor C is continuousl y char ged, and V p is i n c reasing. When V p reaches the threshold v oltage of In v 1 ( V inv 1 ), T out is lo w , M x 3 and M x 4 become OFF and M x 2 becomes ON, respecti v ely . Therefore, the char ge of C is dischar ged through M x 2 , and then the circuit returns to the idle mode. Using (16), T out can be gi v en by T out = C V inv 1 I 2 r ef I P T AT (17) From (17), it can be inferred that T out is proportional to I P T AT . T out can be con v erted to the digital v alue by counting up the period of high le v el in T out by a counter . 2.4. Pr ogrammable T emperatur e Range Digitalization In the sub section 2.3 it has been e xplained that digital v alue of the measured temperature can be obtained by counting up the high le v el period of T out by a counter . Ho we v er , if T out is directly connected to counter , it will be inef fecti v e. Because it is kno wn from equation (17) that T out is proportional to absolute temperature. It means that the high le v el of T out will appear as f ar as the temper ature is lar ger than absolute zero. In the other hand, it is well kno wn that in the biomedical applications, the measured temperature is much higher than absolute zero, for e xample the critical human body temperature is 35 °C (h ypothermia) to 41.5 °C (h yperp yre xia). Thus, if T out is directly connected to counter , the temperature range of digital con v ersion result will be dif ficult to be adjust ed. Moreo v er , the digital con v ersion will not reach high resolution. In T out -counter direct connection, the temperature range can be adjusted using clock frequenc y of the counter . The higher clock frequenc y of counter , the more narro w temperature range that can be con v ert to digital data. Oppositely to the temperature range, the resolution of digital data is higher . Ho we v er , for narro w temperature range biomedical applications, T out -counter direct connection is still not ef fecti v e w ay to be used. Because T out pulse width is start to appear right after absolute zero temperature, and increases proportionally as temperature in- creases. Therefore, if the minimum temperature of the biomedical appl ications is much lar ger than absolute zero, the unnecessary con v ersion will e xist. This problem will also mak e the adjustment dif ficult, because the counter will be o v erflo w man y times before start to con v erts desired T out pulse width. Figure 5 sho ws the desired con v ersion and unnecessary con v ersion in T out pulse width. T o mak e easier temperature range adjustment and more ef fecti v e con v ersion, unnecessary con v ersion must be eliminated. In other w ord, the counter counting up only in desired con v ersion re gion in T out pulse width. T o perform this function, the connection between T out and counter is modified. This architecture is sho wn in Fig. 6. Figure 5. Desired con v ersion in T out pulse width Figure 6. ITC-Counter connection architecture Using architecture in Fig. 6, the temperature range can be programmed or adjusted not only by clock frequenc y of the counter b ut also by pulse width of the t rigger ( V tg r ). Since V tg r is connected to R st using an in v erter , the counter will be in reset condition and it does not count up as f ar as the V tg r is high. Thus, the con v ersion only in desired temperature range can be performed by k eeping high V tg r from t 0 to t 1 sho wn in Fig. 5. The pulse width of V tg r is written in equation (18). The clock frequenc y of the counter then can be calculated using equation (19). V tg r P W = t 1 t 0 (18) f cl k = 2 N 1 t 2 t 1 (19) Where t 1 is pulse width of minimum temperature in temperature range, t 2 is pulse width of maximum temperature in temperature range, and N is resolution of the counter (bit).
