Converter offset inputs. The high resolution A/D Converter also contains
circuitry to measure and store DC offset and subtract that value form all
readings. This offset value is updated each time a different measurement
application is selected or when requested through the calibration menu.

converter
The analog bandwidth of the Input Amplifier is approximately 300 kHz. The
operating bandwidth of the High Bandwidth A/D Converter is approximately
96 kHz. The 80 kHz low-pass filter, FL10, is an 11-pole filter hybrid circuit that
sharply limits the bandwidth of the signal applied to the A/D Converter. At
