I've done this using a standard bin to bcd routine from piclist. You may
adjust a little the slope ( if you need ) by playing with references of
your microcontroller. If your LM outputs the correct voltage for measured
temperature ( in your favorite measuring sistem), no table look or other
software tricks are required.
Even for kelvin to celsius conversion, with some resolution loss you may
apply same hardware trick. From farenheit to celsius I don't know...
