4.4.3 Calibration Tab

The Calibration tab allows users to enter some information regarding the INA219 configuration in a given application. This information is used to compute the Full-Scale Cal Register. The Full-Scale Cal Register converts the shunt voltage to a current value. The detailed mathematics behind this calibration feature is given in the INA219 data sheet.
