- * Sensor data layout:
- * [31:20] - sensor value @ 25C
- * Use universal formula now and only need sensor value @ 25C
- * slope = 0.4297157 - (0.0015976 * 25C fuse)
+ * The sensor is calibrated at 25 °C (aka T1) and the value measured
+ * (aka N1) at this temperature is provided in bits [31:20] in the
+ * i.MX's OCOTP value ANA1.
+ * To find the actual temperature T, the following formula has to be used
+ * when reading value n from the sensor:
+ *
+ * T = T1 + (N - N1) / (0.4297157 - 0.0015976 * N1) °C
+ * = [T1 - N1 / (0.4297157 - 0.0015976 * N1) °C] + N / (0.4297157 - 0.0015976 * N1) °C
+ * = [T1 + N1 / (0.0015976 * N1 - 0.4297157) °C] - N / (0.0015976 * N1 - 0.4297157) °C
+ * = c2 - c1 * N

+ * c1 = 1 / (0.0015976 * N1 - 0.4297157) °C
+ * c2 = T1 + N1 / (0.0015976 * N1 - 0.4297157) °C

- * Derived from linear interpolation:

- * slope = (FACTOR2 - FACTOR1 * n1) / FACTOR0
- * (Nmeas - n1) / (Tmeas - t1) = slope
- * We want to reduce this down to the minimum computation necessary
- * for each temperature read. Also, we want Tmeas in millicelsius
- * and we don't want to lose precision from integer division. So...

- * Let constant c1 = (-1000 / slope)
- * milli_Tmeas = (n1 - Nmeas) * c1 + 1000 * t1
- * Let constant c2 = n1 *c1 + 1000 * t1
