Abstract

Disclosed is an apparatus for determining the temperature, comprising a first temperature sensor, a second temperature sensor, and electronics which are configured to apply an electrical signal to the first temperature sensor and/or the second temperature sensor and to tap off at least one reception signal from the first temperature sensor and/or the second temperature sensor. The apparatus also comprises at least six connection lines for making electrical contact with the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor, wherein the connection lines are arranged and configured such that the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor are connected in series and can have the transmission signal applied thereto such that the first reception signal can be tapped off from the first temperature sensor and/or the second reception signal can be tapped off from the second temperature sensor.
