1 Types of ADC Errors

The performance and accuracy of an ADC are defined in the Electrical Characteristics section of the device-specific data sheet. Typical accuracy characteristics include offset error, gain error, differential nonlinearity (DNL) and integral nonlinearity (INL). From these four characteristics, the absolute error can be calculated.
