  Abstract.  Shown  in  this  paper  is  the  efficiency  of  a  smoothing  cubic  spline 
approximation  for  temperature  response  curves  (TRC)  of  wide  range  silicon  diode 
thermometers (SDTs). The offered calculation algorithm allows to describe TRC with a 
high accuracy and receive the  interpolation tables  with any temperature  step.  It allows 
essentially to expand SDT field of application.
 Keywords:   smoothing spline, spline approximation, thermodiode.
