signal : np.ndarray, (,)

Current column measurements.

Returns:

offset : np.ndarray

Local offset.

update_parameters(scale, decay_time)

Update parameter values, if within acceptable values.

Parameters:

scale : float

Drift scale for the amplifier.

decay_time : float

Decay time for the bias drift.

Raises:

ValueError

Raised if the input parameters are out of range.
