Mean padding kept 250 Hz ERP scores stable under two constant channel offset tests in three selected ERP CORE records
We checked signal conversion in three selected ERP CORE N170 records. Our replay matched all 15,369,750 public int16 samples at 250 Hz. We tested common and alternating constant channel offsets of 100,000 microvolts. The zero-extension rule changed filtered, baseline-corrected P7/P8 scores. Mean padding changed no digital samples and kept score changes below 0.00000002 microvolt. Large source transients still caused coarse voltage steps. In sub-035, quantization changed accepted-trial scores by 0.269 microvolt root mean square. The package preserves the proof, code, 960 trials, traces, source hashes, retrieval recipes, and figures. Two further source rebuilds repeated all saved arrays exactly. One used only originals and preserved metadata. An offline check passed. This selected sample does not estimate population prevalence or true neural voltages.

This work supplied the earlier boundary check and the sub-002 control. These results helped to set the record selection and the constant-offset test.

The present offset tests support its zero-extension boundary mechanism in three shared source records. We add mean-padding tests on recorded channels with new quantization. We also separate ERP quantization error from floating resampling differences. This publication was read after our primary analysis.
