Abstract

See full text

An auto-calibrated reference resistor ladder network is disclosed which is suitable for use in a precision analog to digital converter. Resistors in the ladder are connected to an auto-calibration circuit which continually measures the potential developed across each of the connected resistors and adjusts the resistance of the resistor to match the measured potential to a reference potential. In the disclosed circuit, the reference potential is the potential developed across a defined one of the resistors.
