Hi Eduardo,
Thanks for review.

Here just temp is stepping but ADC reading is not in linear. So temp vs 
adc value is not linear.
Just making the table that temp vs adc value where temp is in equally 
stepped.

if something is not possible for few steps than that can be intrapolate 
here to get this.

Other way as you said: two dimensional. You mean <temp ADC-value> pair 
for the table?

This is also possible and on this case, we will not need lower/upper and 
step temperature.
Table will provide all the information.

Also, I assume that sensor is negative coefficients. Temp increases->ADC 
read value decreases.

Should we also support positive coefficient relation?

It is from my testing, not standard.  I will remove it.

 From my testing only. Will remove it.
