Abstract
A method and system for determining thermistor resistance have been disclosed. The method comprises providing a temperature sensor network within a wireless sensor device, wherein the temperature sensor network includes a driver device and a receiver device, coupling the driver device to the receiver device using a dual bond wire system, determining at least one output voltage using at least one input current flowing through the dual bond wire system, and determining the thermistor resistance using the at least one output voltage. The system comprises a wireless sensor device including a temperature sensor network that comprises driver and receiver devices, and a dual bond wire system that couples the driver device to the receiver device, wherein at least one output voltage is determined using at least one input current flowing through the dual bond wire system, further wherein the thermistor resistance is determined using the at least one output voltage.
