A temperature sensor module with an integrated lid structure for spurious IR-cancellation is disclosed. An improved temperature sensor module that allows detection of a maximum of the relevant IR-radiation from an object's surface of interest as well as generation of additional information about parasitic or spurious IR-radiation that distort the relevant thermal signal in order to enable a cancellation of interfering thermal signal portions is presented. The temperature sensor module includes a temperature sensing element, a sensor-interface control integrated circuit, whereas the temperature sensing element is coupled to the sensor-interface control IC, and a lid structure and a sensor packaging both defining a field of view of the temperature sensor module, wherein the lid structure is formed by a substrate comprising a second integrated temperature sensor connected to the sensor-interface control IC or an external connected processing unit.
