Purpose of Calibration Step
Basic dc +2 V dc 3 Calibrates DACs and thermal sensor. (This
is the unscaled range)
Sensor turnover −2.0 -2 V dc 3 Corrects dc turnover error
Sensor turnover +0.7
Sensor turnover −0.7
+0.7 V dc
-0.7 V dc
5 Corrects turnover error of the RMS sensor
at minimum scale. After the -0.7 V step,
internally calibrates the range zeros
