#92720 - Re: Wrong Assumption.
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Dear Steve,
Thanks for your kind reply,

I agree that the calculation I mentioned in my post was the worst case assumption. As Kai said in his post in this thread the best method for having a caliberation pot is having it in series with some good quality [ low drift fixed resistor ] and the caliberation pot is having the value just enough to adjust for the error due to tolerances. For example where a resistor of 100k is needed one can use 99.9k 0.1% 15PPM/C resistor in series with a 200ohms 1% 100PPM/C Cermet pot. Thus the effective drift with a change in temperature=40C will be 59.94Ohms + 0.8Ohms = 60.74Ohms & Thats a change by 0.06% good enough for higher bit ADC's.

Thanks & Regards,
Prahlad Purohit
