Methods and apparatus for calibrating transducer-including devices

Embodiments of systems (300) for calibrating transducer-including devices (100, 200, 372, 650, 900, 1000) include a board support structure (354, 630), one or more motors (356, 620), a motor control module (320), and a calibration control module (318). The board support structure holds a calibration board (370, 400, 640) in a fixed position with respect to the board support structure. The motor(s) rotate (808) the board support structure around one or more axes of a fixed coordinate system. The motor control module sends (808) motor control signals to the motor(s) to cause the motor(s) to move the board support structure through a series of orientations with respect to the fixed coordinate system. The calibration control module sends (810), through a communication structure (330), signals to the transducer-including devices, which are loaded into a plurality of sockets (420) of the calibration board. The signals cause the transducer-including devices to generate (812) transducer data while the board support structure is in or moving toward each orientation of the series of orientations.
