All crap; I trust none of them. Not a single manufacturer is following the specs exactly.
I thought we were talking about the (somewhat common) MAX6657 hack like my older stuff or (better yet) the evaluation systems like I now have.

Ok, it's time for me to introduce a new concept (except to BillA, of course!)
Cumulative error margin.
If the diode has a +/- 0.1 error margin, and the chip that reads it has a +/- 0.5 error margin (assuming specs were followed), then we have a +/- 0.6 margin of error.
If we test perform a block, there are many, many variables, not all of which can be measured. Right now, it's too late for me to try to list them, so I'll let a younger whipper snapper give it a shot.
