be adjusted to a minimal AC ripple using the selectable
k factor of parameters MPS and MPC (see Table 21).
If the gain setting is altered, this calibration has to be
repeated. When single-ended operating mode is se-
lected via register bit INMODE (see Table 12) MPS
and MPC have no impact and the applied voltage at
the negative input replaces the configurable sum volt-
age in the VDC generation.

The feedback of pin voltage V(ACO) fulfills the same
task as source VDC when MR bridge sensors are sup-
plied by the controlled sensor current source. In this
case the justification of intermediate potentials MPS
and MPC is unnecessary.

The principle interpolation accuracy of the sine/cosine
