ABSTRACT:
Thermistors are calibrated by taking three thermistor resistance measurements at various temperatures. The resistance values are converted or transferred to Analog to Digital (A/D) bits or bit values which the machine's microprocessor can relate to temperature. The three values are utilized for constructing a calibration curve in the microprocessor for a specific thermistor bead. Use of the curve allows for mathematical interpolation by the microprocessor between calibration points, providing a wider and more accurate range to set the fuser roll temperatures. This increased accuracy over a wider range than before allows the sensor to become a common part for a family of products which may require different standby and runtime temperatures.
