Hi Mikael,

A couple of questions on the calib* parts. I hadn't looked closely those
before and the datasheet is not very helpful!

As it's subtraction, why calibscale? Sounds more suitable to make this to calibbias.

Perhaps add some details on why this is a calibbias type control?

Whilst I can sort of grasp it might have a similar affect to a conventional
calibration bias by removing some offset, it's not totally obvious.

Whilst I'm failing to actually understand what this is doing and maybe never will
we can make the interface more intuitive by not using the encoded value.
Just use a value in nA with both the val and val2 parts.

it is rather odd given 15 * 2.4 is only 36 so there are holes..  PRobably a case
for getting as close as you can to the requested value.

Calibration parameters aren't guaranteed to have a simple interpretation but
this current case is worse that it needs to be.

Single line comment syntax is fine here.  Also drop the extra spaces before
Setting.

I can't figure out what this one actually is.
