In this example code:
nRF5_SDK_13.0.0_04a0bfd/examples/ble_peripheral/ble_app_proximity/main.c
Where the ADC is configured to read the battery voltage:
nrf_saadc_channel_config_t config =
NRF_DRV_SAADC_DEFAULT_CHANNEL_CONFIG_SE(NRF_SAADC_INPUT_VDD);
Why is this 270 mV offset added to the voltage read by the ADC?
/**< Typical forward voltage drop of the diode . */
#define DIODE_FWD_VOLT_DROP_MILLIVOLTS 270
batt_lvl_in_milli_volts = ADC_RESULT_IN_MILLI_VOLTS(adc_result) +
DIODE_FWD_VOLT_DROP_MILLIVOLTS;
percentage_batt_lvl = battery_level_in_percent(batt_lvl_in_milli_volts);
Is that 270 mV offset only appropriate when running on the nRF52-DK, or also when running the nRF52832 powered from battery?
Thanks.
