If the two measurements are within a set accuracy, the calibration routine stops. The device is in sleep during the conversion to further reduce noise and possible sources of error. The ADCC is setup in a burst average mode during which the system acquires 32 samples and then averages them by right shifting by 5. For proper operation, Vout must be less than 4.096V. Measurements of both the non-inverting and inverting input are done through the ADCC, with the Fixed Voltage Reference (FVR) at 4.096V. Figure 3 (below), shows the configuration. Vdd/2, which normally level-shifts the input, now provides the reference used for calibration. When the device is to be calibrated, it switches the configuration to that of a unity gain buffer. The configuration when not in sleep is shown in Figure 2. The ideal output function of this configuration in this setup is simply: Vout = Vdd - Vin. For simplicity, the OPA module is configured as an inverting amplifier, with a gain of -1, and a level shift of Vdd/2. Theoretically, any configuration of the OPA module can run this algorithm.

The end result is that the offset register needs to be corrected in the calibration routine to account for the errors in the register. This is an extreme case (temperature changes are much more subtle than this). It does this by changing the offset correction register every 10ms (while not calibrating). To demonstrate this algorithm, the program needs to force the offset to become incorrect. The algorithm is illustrated in Figure 1 below.įigure 1 - Calibration Flowchart Implementation

TB3280: Using Operational Amplifiers in PIC16 and PIC18Ĭode Example: Gain and Offset Calibration of the Analog Signal Conditioning (OPAMP) Peripheral (MPLAB)Ĭode Example: Gain and Offset Calibration of the Analog Signal Conditioning (OPAMP) Peripheral (Studio) Software Used This code example demonstrates this algorithm at ambient temperature by simulating offset error through constant changes to the offset register. To compensate for this effect, the ADC can be used to adjust the offset correction register in field. In applications where the devices are subjected to non-ambient temperatures, the input offset voltage of the OPA module can change and cause errors on the output of the peripheral. The Operational Amplifier (OPA) module in the PIC18-Q41 family is a general-purpose operational amplifier.
