METER SPECIFICATIONS AND CALIBRATION PARAMETERS
This section contains the editable options for the meter design. 
The resolution of the output registers are determined from these three parameters, and
are set based on the information in Table 2-6
These tables are important and are applied to calculate the resolution values used
when calculating the GAIN/LSb registers, that occur while calibrating the meter. These
values are also used to place the decimal point in the reading or results frame.
The resolutions shown in the below tables are based on the assumption that the I
MAX
and V
CAL
 voltages will be at approximately 50% of the input voltage to the A/D
converters. To change the headroom of the A/D input, simply change the maximum
current number, and the GAIN/LSb registers will scale accordingly.
