Hi guys, I'm working on an article about the bit resolution and precision of a 1762-IF2OF2. I know it is 12 bit which is 0-4096 and that the data is shifted by 3 bits to take up bits 3-14, making the range 0-32,760 instead. But I'm not sure I fully understand why this was done.
Does anyone know why this was done? Here's the explanation of the shift, I just think it leaves a big question lingering as to why. Obviously it makes the value look more precise, but that just doesn't seem like the correct answer.
