Specification Valu e Comments

Self-Calibration An onboard, 24-bit ADC and precision voltage reference are

used to calibrate the DC gain and offset. The self-calibration

is initiated by the user through the software and takes

approximately 90 seconds to complete.

External

Calibration

The External Calibration calibrates the VCXO, voltage

reference, DC gain, and offset. Appropriate constants are

stored in nonvolatile memory.
