The conversion data are scaled by offset and gain
registers before yielding the final output code. As
shown in Figure 54, the output of the digital filter is
first subtracted by the offset register (OFC) and then
multiplied by the full-scale register (FSC). Equation 7
shows the scaling:

The full-scale calibration is a 24-bit word, composed
of three 8-bit registers, as shown in Table 14. The
full-scale calibration value is 24-bit, straight binary,
normalized to 1.0 at code 400000h. Table 12
summarizes the scaling of the full-scale register. A
register value of 400000h (default value) has no gain
correction (gain = 1). Note that while the gain
calibration register value corrects gain errors above 1
(gain correction < 1), the full-scale range of the
analog inputs cannot exceed 105% full-scale to avoid
input overload.
The values of the offset and full-scale registers are
set by writing to them directly, or they are set by
calibration commands.
OFC[2:0] Registers
The offset calibration is a 24-bit word, composed of
three 8-bit registers, as shown in Table 13. The offset
is in twos complement format with a maximum
positive value of 7FFFFFh and a maximum negative
value of 800000h. This value is subtracted from the
conversion data. A register value of 00000h has no
offset correction (default value). Note that while the
offset calibration register value can correct offsets
ranging from –FS to +FS (as Table 11 shows), to
avoid input overload, the analog inputs cannot
exceed 105% full-scale.
