Hello everyone,
I am making some sensor boards and was wondering what the best thermistor or temperature sensor is for use with the VESC 6 HW. I remember seeing a schematic for the VESC 4 that had a 10k thermistor and a 10k resistor as a voltage divider. Is this the best for VESC 6 as well?
Thanks!
A 10K thermistor should be fine. There is a setting now to adjust the beta value, but the resistance has to be 10k.
Yes you can easily find glass body NTC very rugged and easy to glue on a motor for example.
Farnell NTCLG100E2103JB ref. 116-4822 works well.
You just have to change beta to 3977.
Have a Nice Day.

Awesome! Thanks for the replies guys, will try those.
