Abstract:
A circuit with a temperature detector includes a first FET and a second FET. Each of the first and second FETs has a channel structure having a non-planar structure. The second FET is in close proximity to the first FET. A gate of the second FET is separated from the first FET, and a source and drain of the second FET are shorted together. A resistance of the gate of the second FET between two terminals on the gate of the second FET varies with a temperature local to the first FET.
