thermal image hot spot! (Mini 5+)
-
Hi all.... new 500 size V-core-3 build, Duet 3 Mini 5+, running the latest 3.4.x.... just finished the wiring...was playing with config.g settings...decided to bust out the thermal camera just for a 'warm and fuzzy'
OK so the Q is...WHAT is the hotspot top center of the board (photo) network connector on the left (in the photo) screw power terminals on the right. The hot spot in question is just above the support post for the Pt100 daughter board. Two smaller spots to the right and lower appear to be inductors.
QUESTION is ...is this a power supply regulator? should it be a hotter spot than the rest of the board? temps go up 3-5 seconds after board is powered up See pic
Mini 5+ is running stand alone (no RPi) nothing on the 5V line except end stops and BLtouch)

Can you get a closer shot?

And maybe do the overlay feature with the normal camera for easier reference to the reference photo.

@ptegler nothing on the board should get that hot. I suspect that you have mis-wired the endstop switches and they are shorting +3.3V to ground. Please disconnect the endstop switches and check the temperatures again.

Is that degrees F or C?
