Azure Sphere starter kit - wrong temperature

Question

Hi,

I am new to Avnet's Azure Sphere. I have executed the steps defined here:

Avnet's Azure Sphere Starter-Kit (Out of Box Demo) Part 1 of 3

After running the code in Visual Studio, the output displays around 10 Celsius degrees higher temperature than I have in my room:

LSM6DSO: Acceleration [mg] : -33.1840, -0.4880, 1001.9860

LSM6DSO: Angular rate [dps] : 0.00, 0.00, 0.00

LSM6DSO: Temperature [degC]: 32.76

LPS22HH: Pressure [hPa] : 992.71

LPS22HH: Temperature [degC]: 32.23

Any ideas, what could be wrong?

Regards,

Laszlo

All on-chip temperature sensors are the same. I'm not really sure why they're included, because as far as I'm aware nobody wants to know the internal temperature.

László Apologies if this not clear in the documentation but those are "die temperatures" that get reported by the LSM6DSO and LPS22HH devices -Peter

For a precise measurement of the room ambient temperature, there are a number of Click, Grove (and Pmod) options you could consider fitting to the board, eg https://www.mikroe.com/click/sensors?type*=temperature-humidity -Peter

If your project is in enclosure sometimes it is handy to know internal temperature.
