&lt;p&gt;Are you possibly executing an offset calibration (&lt;span&gt;TASKS_CALIBRATEOFFSET)&lt;/span&gt; at this time? The offset calibration can switch between two codes if it&amp;#39;s close to the&amp;nbsp;limit between two calibration steps in the DAC.&amp;nbsp;The accuracy of the calibration DAC is approximately 4 LSB12b, which means that in 14-bit mode the calibration step is approximately 16 LSB14b (differential mode, in In single ended it will be 2 x 16 LSB14b). I would consider this the most likely cause, but let me know otherwize.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;Kenneth&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
