The current offset has the scale already applied to it. The ABI documentation defines the offset parameter as "offset to be added to <type>[Y]_raw prior to scaling by <type>[Y]_scale in order to obtain value in the <type> units as specified in <type>[Y]_raw documentation" The right value is obtained at 0 degrees Celsius by the formula provided in the datasheet: T = Tsens_t0 + (Tadc_t - Tadc_t0) / Tadc_res where: T = 0 degrees Celsius Tsens_t0 (reference temperature) = 25 degrees Celsius Tadc_t0 (16-bit format for Tsens_t0) = 17508 Tadc_res = 60.1 LSB/degree Celsius The resulting offset is 16005.5, which has been truncated to 16005 to provide an integer value with a precision loss smaller than the 1-LSB measurement precision. Fix the offset to apply its value prior to scaling.
