1. A system comprising:
a memory device comprising a plurality of memory cells; and
a processing device, operatively coupled with the memory device, to perform operations comprising:
comparing respective values of a subset of the plurality of memory cells to a pattern of pre-programmed memory cells on the memory device, wherein the pattern of pre-programmed memory cells comprises representations of values of the pattern of pre-programmed memory cells when a temperature criterion is satisfied;
responsive to determining that at least a threshold number of the respective values of the subset matches the pattern of pre-programmed memory cells, identifying a temperature reading from a thermal sensor coupled to the memory device; and
responsive to determining that the temperature reading does not correspond to the temperature criterion, determining that the thermal sensor has failed.
