The algorithm supports a temperature range of -45 C to +130 C. The 
temperature is checked at calibration time and adjustments are made to 
make sure the reads work over the entire temperature range [0].

[0] The current implementation does not have a way to query the 
temperature from the sensor (see cqspi_get_temp()), so it always assumes 
the temperature at calibration time is 45 C. But that can be added later 
once the temperature sensor driver is implemented.
