DATA? Example for Digital Channels
When you calibrate your Infiniium, the input to each channel, in turn, is
connected to the Aux Out connector. The Aux Out is connected to a 16-bit
digital-to-analog convertor (DAC) whose input is controlled by Infiniium’s CPU.
There are 65,536 dc voltage levels that are produced by the 16-bit DAC at the
Aux Out. At each dc voltage value, the output of the ADC is checked to see if
a new digital code is produced. When this happens, a 16-bit correction factor
is calculated for that digital code and this correction factor is stored in a
Calibration Look-up Table.

Data Flow in Infiniium
This process continues until all 256 digital codes are calibrated. The calibration
process removes most of the non-linearity error of the ADC which yields more
accurate vertical voltage values.
During normal operation of the oscilloscope, the output of the ADC is used as
an address to the Calibration Look-up Table which produces 16-bit data for the
oscilloscope to process and display. The output of the ADC is a signed 8-bit
integer and the output of the Calibration Look-up Table is a signed 16-bit integer.
If the amplitude of the input waveform is larger than the maximum dc reference
level of the ADC, the ADC will output the maximum 8-bit value that it can (255).
This condition is called ADC clipping. When the 255 digital code is applied to
the Calibration Look-up Table, a 16-bit value, such as 26,188 could be produced
which represents an ADC clipped value. This number will vary from one
oscilloscope to the next.
