5.3 Gain Error Compensation

Sampling VREFLO before a conversion with inadequate settling performance transforms the memory cross-talk from another signal (which could be unpredictable) to a constant and predictable scaling factor as shown in Equation 10. However, the resulting gain error in that example was over 4%. This is quite large and will likely be the dominant error source in the system when determining the overall accuracy for the conversion of that signal.

To mitigate the gain error created by the VREFLO sampling method, the user can post-process the ADC results. This entails performing a simple scaling (multiplication) operation on the raw ADC results to correct for the gain error introduced. This can be done in the CPU ISR or CLA task that reads the ADC results by performing the simple operation:

Equation 7. V i ' =   V i   ∙   C i

Where:

  • Vi = the raw ADC result affected by the VREFLO sampling
  • Vi' = the compensated ADC result
  • Ci = the compensation coefficient for channel i

For example, if the relative error caused by the settling error is -4.39%, Ci would be (1 - (-0.0439)) = 1.0439 and if the raw ADC result was 2199 the compensated ADC result would be 2199·1.0439 = 2295.5.
