Subject: [PATCH] Random notes on resolution Need to figure out how to present
 this better (and verify all the numbers)

+LA-55:

+  Actual bits is 16

+
+  CT full range is 55 A	    (FR + 0.5 bits)
+  CT used range is 100 mA   (FR - 8.5 bits)
+  ADC resolution over used range is about 8.5 bits
+  Which would give us (FR - 17 bits)
+  -- IF the LA-55 can measure 300uA.
+     This would be 17.5 bits at its full range.
+     Spec is around 1% = 7 bits.

+  Actual bits is 16
+  Stable bits is ~21
+
+  CT range is 5 mA (FR - 13 bits)
+  ADC resolution over this range is about 8.5 bits
+  Which would give us (FR - 21.5 bits)
+  -- IF the CT-0.1 worked at all.. it's broken.
+     It would be measuring 20uA.
+     This would be 12.2 bits at its full range.
