Calibration Overview

3.2.1 Method

The calibration method is broken up into the following sections. The first four sequences are subroutines
to be used in the main calibration sequences. Once in CALIBRATION mode, it is important to perform
voltage calibration first.
Section
3.3, Enter CALIBRATION Mode
Section
3.4, Voltage Calibration
Section
3.5, CC Offset
Section
3.6, Board Offset
Section
3.7, Obtain Raw Calibration Data
Section
3.8, Current Calibration
Section
3.9, Temperature Calibration
Section
3.10, Floating Point Conversion
Section
3.11, Exit CALIBRATION Mode
