If you print the value of the temperature value you are going to get an integer number between 0 and 65535.
So, we have to convert this value either to the Celsius degree scales.
The temperature sensor works by delivering a voltage to the ADC4 pin that is proportional to the temperature.
From the datasheet, a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius delivers a voltage of 0.706 V.
With each additional degree the voltage reduces by 1.721 mV or 0.001721 V.
The first step in converting the 16-bit temperature is to convert it back to volts, which is done based on the 3.3 V maximum voltage used by the Pico board.
