A method is provided to produce an error corrected digital output from a temperature measurement system that generates digital outputs representative of the output of one or more temperature sensors. In an embodiment of the invention the method comprises: storing in a plurality of memory locations corresponding error correction data, with each memory location having a correlation to a corresponding range of the digital outputs; utilizing each digital output to identify a corresponding one of the memory locations; accessing the corresponding one memory location to obtain error correction data specific to the digital output; and utilizing the error correction data specific to the digital output to correct the digital output, whereby an error corrected digital output is generated.
