2.1.8.4 How does Calibration affect Simulations?

During simulation, the analog block core produces ideal conversion results; therefore, calibration is not required. To support this behavior, the Flash memory computer‑aided engineering (CAE) model is populated with gain (M) and offset (C) values of M = 1 and C = 0. As a result, the calibration function effectively passes the converted value through unchanged.

In an actual device, this region of Flash memory is preprogrammed during manufacturing with device‑specific M and C values. During normal system operation, these coefficients are applied by the calibration intellectual property (IP) block to each analog‑to‑digital converter (ADC) conversion.
