Calibration

6.4 A/D Calibration

Since the ACL-8111 provides versatile A/D input ranges, the calibration on
one A/D range may cause a small offset on other ranges. It is suggested that
you calibrate the A/D range which you need best accuracy.

The procedures of calibration are as follows:

1. Set the analog input range as: +/- 5V, i.e. the gain = 1.

2. Short the A/D channel 0 (pin 1 of CN1) to ground (GND), and connect

the TP1 (+) and TP2 (-) with your DVM. Trim the variable resister VR5 to
obtain 0 reading in the DVM.

3. Applied a +5V input signal to A/D channel 0, and trim the VR4 to obtain

reading between 4094~4095.

4. Applied a +0V input signal to A/D channel 0, and trim the VR3 to obtain

reading flickers between 2048~2049.

5. Repeat step 2 and step 3, adjust VR3 and VR4.
