This allows for external adjustment of offset and full scale in applications where absolute accuracy is impor- Internal Voltage Reference tant. See Figure 5 for the offset and gain trim circuit. The 100k resistor in parallel with the 33.2k is only needed for The LTC1606 has an on-chip, temperature compensated, externally trimming the offset. First, adjust the offset to curvature corrected, bandgap reference, which is factory zero by adjusting resistor R3. Apply an input voltage trimmed to 2.50V. The full-scale range of the ADC is equal of –152.6µV (– 0.5LSB) and adjust R3 so the code is to (±4 • VREF) or nominally ±10V. The output of the reference is connected to the input of a buffer (1.64x) 1 through a 4k resistor (see Figure 3).
