See: VoltageDivider (voltage across resistor to GND when another resistor present to +5V)

Here are a list of temp calibration files for different cars

(for v3.x older than 2006 see BuildProcedures/SectionThree hint: "aref=256")

Most installs work best with (tempsensor_upload.bat 2252 2252 256)

that is

Let's say

Actual voltage depends on pullup resistor

VEMS v3 uses R10=2k7 (2700 Ohm, not 2490 Ohm) pullup to +5V which gives voltage:

U= 5V / (2700 / NTC_Ohm_at_given_temperature + 1)


If you have doubts, provide measurement(s) so we can help you select the best temperature curve. Actually with the common ntc type sensor, just one temperature point is sufficient (easiest with cold engine when sensor temperature is same as environment)

For dead-on calibration, you can choose from the PTC series, Marcell found PTC_aref260_425 is best for his Audi PTC. Note that the second number is higher for higher PTC value (or lower pullup)

BOSCH sensors

For the classic 2057 Ohm (@T=+25C) NTC type sensor (often closer to 2063 Ohm in practice though difference is negligable), 2063/263 (or 256 or 268) is best match.

Most classical BOSCH NTC curve used from early 80s up to nowdays. No matter it is Volvo, Audi, Mercedes, Volksvagen, BMW etc - all of them had or have similar sensors.

Both ...2063_256.hex and ...2252_256.hex give some degries mismatch at environment or engine operating temperatures. At tuning it is not heavy importance, but if LCD is used this is very welcome to see believable values on it.
