I am not using nitrogen (just warm air while assembling) and never get the chip frozen over.
You better talk to Theo about this strange behavior, it might be something simple.

Thanks Martin. I'll do some more testing today then contact him.
Something's definitely fishy. If I set the point to 0c the TEC will kick in and get the camera down to -28c then the TEC will go off, the Camera will slowly warm up again until it passes 0c then the TEC will kick in again at 3c and bring the camera back down to -28c again. So wether it doesn't regulate properly of Maxim is giving me incorrect readings?

See attached snapshots.
I'm doing this indoors so ambient is approx 20c.
