In Mike's table, the real temperature at which the sensor last reported 'valid' (according to the thermal diode) was at 44 degrees C, or 56 degrees below TjMax. Add the reported temperature of 6 degrees C to that number and you get 62. Round up to 64 below TjMax, or 36 degrees C. Not that this calculation really makes any sense ;-), but with Mike's 'real' numbers from the thermal diode it sounds at least somewhat reasonable.
