LIS3DH Temperature Sensor

The lis3dh sensor platform provides access to the on-chip temperature sensor of a LIS3DH accelerometer (datasheet) with ESPHome. It requires a motion component to be configured with the lis3dh platform, which handles the accelerometer data and configures the device. See that component for more information.

The LIS3DH temperature sensor is uncalibrated and reports only relative changes (roughly 1 °C per count). Use sensor filters such as offset or calibrate_linear against a reference thermometer if you need an absolute reading.
