Getting the Battery temperature and unit of the result

Question

I was reading how to get the temperature of the battery and I make small app, and in my receiver I have something like this

int temp = intent.getIntExtra("temperature", 0);

well , this temp have values like 390 or 380 something that is really big to be Celsius but I think that is big number even for Fahrenheit...

can someone please tall what is the unit, does it have a range and so on.

in the official documentation all I found was "integer containing the current battery temperature"

Thanks

The temperature is in tenths of a degree centigrade. Also discussed in question here.
