Oh, I had expected that would have been the issue.
 
On reading your post again, I don't quite understand - to clarify - you
are performing ADC conversions and the digital result is always off by a
constant factor?  Could you provide some examples of the raw data and
the input voltage.  Does your result clip out at 0 anywhere below 0.9V?
 
Please verify you have VDDA0 and VDDA1 at 5V, Vrh at 5V, Vrl at gnd.
 
Other things to try - perform conversions on the internal refs to see if
they are correct, perform conversions using both ADCs to see if both are
the same, perform without calibration incase you have made an error in
the MAC settings.
 
- Allan

Allan,
We have only the 100nF cap not the resistor.
