Abstract

A method of processing an analog signal includes receiving, into signal processing circuitry from compensation circuitry, an offset compensation signal, the offset compensation signal having (i) a polarity opposite a polarity of a gain error of the signal processing circuitry and (ii) a magnitude equal to a nominal compensation value plus a deviation. The method includes generating, by the signal processing circuitry, an output signal based on an analog signal received into the signal processing circuitry, including applying the offset compensation signal to an intermediate signal generated by the signal processing circuitry. The method includes scaling the output signal based on the deviation between the magnitude of the offset compensation signal and the nominal compensation value.
