March 23, 2015 | steelcityelectronics

Installed at the rear of the Da Vinci print bed is a small NTC thermistor. Some experimenting was undertaken to determine the characteristics of the thermistor.

Using substitute resistances, the temperature curve of the print bed thermistor was determined.

Da Vinci 1.0 Extruder Thermistor Properties

The Da Vinci 1.0 has a small NTC thermistor embedded in the extruder. This provides the printer with temperature measurements of the extruder.

After some experimenting, the extruder’s thermistor temperature response curve has been inferred through substituting known values of resistance for the thermistor. All the measured values have been compiled.
