SBAS691B March 2016 – October 2018 ADS1282-SP
PRODUCTION DATA.
The GANCAL command performs a gain calibration. Before sending the GANCAL command, a DC input signal must be applied that is in the range of, but not exceeding, positive or negative full-scale. After the signal has stabilized, the command can be sent. The ADS1282-SP averages 16 readings, then computes the value that compensates for the gain error. The gain correction value is then written to the FSC register. The contents of the GANCAL register may be subsequently read or written. While the gain calibration command corrects for gain errors greater than 1 (gain correction <1), to avoid input overload, the analog inputs cannot exceed full-scale range. The gain calibration should be performed after the offset calibration.
