Task ObjectiveCalibration assures that the device is performing within specification and confirms traceabilit! to N"#$standards in demonstrating the absolute accurac! of the output% $he interval is not well determined b!the failure timing data%

Task Content Calibration should include the following&' A visual inspection should be performed to chec( for tightness of the connections general cleanlinessproper mechanical alignments free movement of the mechanical assembl! corroded edge connectorsover heated components on printed circuit boards lea(ing capacitors and crac(ed terminations andcases%' )erif! and ad*ust as needed the device+s ,ero span%' )erif! and ad*ust as needed the device+s linearit! h!steresis%' "t is strongl! suggested that a minimum - point calibration response chec( be performed a . pointchec( should be considered for more critical devices%

 Principle ail!re "ocation #n$ Ca!ses:Calibration is focused on correcting drift especiall! when it can no longer be compensated b! thecontroler and also addressing longer term wearout failures of electronic subcomponents%

 Pro%ression O& 'e%ra$ation (n Time:$he drift is primaril! age related/ longer term wearout failures of electronic subcomponents areaddressed b! detecting the decreasing abilit! to reset the drift%

 )!pport or T*e Task (nterval #n$ Relation To Ot*er Tasks:$he degradation mechanisms addressed effectivel! are the aging processes causing drift and failure ofelectronic subcomponents% 0ecause the controler will compensate for drift to some maimum etentCalibration is less critical for controllers than for other "2C components%
