  • Page 27: Use Of Calibration Data

    Software calibration uses some fairly complex equations. Acromag provides software products (sold separately) to make communication with the board and calibration easy. It relieves you from having to turn the equations of the following sections into debugged software calibration code.

  • Page 28: Uncalibrated Performance

    Typically, each error component is much less than its maximum and all error components do not reinforce each other. Thus, typical errors are much less than that shown above. Acromag, Inc. Tel: 248-295-0310 - 27 - - 27 - https://www.acromag.com...
