The temperature sensor module includes: a temperature sensor element and a signal processing circuit. The signal processing circuit includes: a series-connection resistor which is connected in series to the temperature sensor element; a temperature detection circuit which detects a temperature; a first analog-digital conversion circuit which converts an output signal from the temperature detection circuit into a digital signal; a memory which stores a series-connection resistor data piece about a relationship between a temperature and the resistance value of the series-connection resistor; a digital signal processing circuit which uses the series-connection resistor data piece, to calculate, on the basis of the digital signal indicating the temperature of the signal processing circuit, a digital command signal for keeping the resistance value of the series-connection resistor at a constant value, and outputs the digital command signal; and a digital-analog conversion circuit which outputs the digital command signal to the series-connection resistor.
