The formulas in Equation (3) and Equation (4) can be used to calculate the temperature offset for temperature sensors that do not employ series resistance cancellation. The result is added to the value measured by the temperature sensor. Contact the vendor of the temperature sensor being used for
the value of nf,TS. Refer to the document,
Equation (3) shows the equation for calculating the lumped
ideality factor (nf, lumped) in sensors that do not employ series resistance cancellation.

Equation (5) is the temperature offset for temperature sensors that utilize series resistance cancellation. Add the result to the value measured by the temperature sensor. Note that the value
of nf,TS in Equation (5) may not equal the value used in Equation (4).
