Gain and Offset Calibration of the Analog Signal Conditioning (OPAMP) Peripheral

A new feature introduced in the AVR® DB MCU is the Analog Signal Conditioning (OPAMP) peripheral. The OPAMP peripheral can be configured as a PGA and in this example, the internal DAC and ADC are used to calibrate the gain and offset for the PGA. For more information on the calibration procedure, see the application note.
