8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 Offset Calibration
The ADS7042 includes a feature to calibrate the device internal offset. During offset calibration, the analog input
pins (AINP and AINM) are disconnected from the sampling stage. The device includes an internal offset
calibration register (OCR) that stores the offset calibration result. The OCR is an internal register and cannot be
accessed by the user through the serial interface. The OCR is reset to zero on power-up. Therefore, TI
recommends calibrating the offset on power-up to bring the offset within the specified limits. If the operating
temperature or analog supply voltage reflect a significant change, the offset can be recalibrated during normal
operation. Figure 35 shows the offset calibration process.
