Question about INA209 datasheet - Calibration register

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: INA209

Hi!

The datasheet says that:

"Current and power calibration are set by bits D15 to D1 of the Calibration Register. Note that bit D0 is not used in
the calculation."

Does that mean, that I have to write my calibration number shifted by one to the left in this register, like this: CALIBRATION_REG = (cal_value<<1)

Or should I just write into the Calibration register my calibration value, and the least significant bit will not be used?

 

I tried the first version with shifting, and it gave me the double of correct results. Then I tried without shifting, and then I had correct results. My calibration values are correct according to INA209 EVM software.

 

Thanks,

Miklos
