3. Using fine gain factor GFS the sine signal amplitude
is then adjusted to 6 Vpp.
Parameter DCPOS determines the input reference
voltage. In the generation of center potentials SVDC
and CVDC it also determines whether the reference
voltage VREFin() is being subtracted from the sum of
the particular input signals or the sum is being sub-
tracted from VREFin().
4. The cosine signal amplitude can then be adjusted
to the sine signal amplitude using fine gain factor GFC.

Gain settings SIN and COS
The gain is set in four steps:

1. The sensor supply controller is shut down and
the constant current source for the ACO output set to
a suitable output current (register ADJ; current value
close to the later operating point).
Offset calibration SIN and COS
In order to calibrate the offset the reference source
must first be selected using register REFVOS. Two
fixed voltages and two dependent sources are avail-
able for this purpose. The fixed voltage sources should
be selected for external sensors which provide stable,
self-regulated signals.
2. The coarse gain range is selected so that differen-
tial signal amplitudes of ca. 6 Vpp are produced at the
core of the converter (signal PS_W versus NS_W and
PC_W versus NC_W).
So that photosensors can be operated in optical en-
coders iC-MR tracks changes in offset voltages via the
signal-dependent source VDC when used in conjunc-
The signals at the converter core output in calibration
mode Analog 1 are amplified by factor 3.
