A video signal processing system including a digital signal processing (DSP) module, a digital offset module coupled to the DSP module, a gain module, and a digital to analog converter (DAC) coupled to the DSP module and to the gain module, wherein the DAC is configured to cause the gain module to provide multiple gain signals having predetermined first values to the DAC, cause, for each of the multiple gain signals, a digital input signal value to the DAC to be ramped up, determine, for each of the multiple gain signals, a lowest digital input signal value that causes an output voltage of the DAC to be at least as high as a reference voltage, and determine a second gain value that will cause the DAC to provide a desired DAC output voltage in response to the DAC receiving a reference DAC input value.
