Two-point calibration
Trimming a sensor by measuring at two known reference points and solving for offset and gain, the minimum procedure to correct a linear transfer function.
- Also known as
- Offset and span calibration

Notes
Non-linear sensors need multi-point calibration or polynomial fits stored in on-chip OTP memory.
