Interesting.   So awkward question for you.  What's the point in applying
a digital offset?  calibbias is normally about tweaking the Analog side.
This just seems to be adding a value on.  I'm not sure it affects what
can actually be captured without saturation.
Maybe it has influence by changing the input range and scale for the
block averaging filter?  I'm not sure.

You can use offset for this given it's a simple linear value and not
anything to do with calibration. It's a little awkward though as that
is post scale rather than the other way around which is rather more
common.
Controls are in the form
voltage = (raw + offset) * scale 

So here
voltage = (raw + offset_reg / (gain_reg * other scaling)) * gain_reg * otherscaling.

Hence your offset is a bit fiddly to compute.
