Definition of terms

• Resolution

Resolution is the minimum input analog value that can be resolved. With 8 bits, 28=256 so

resolution can be to (VREF-AGND) ÷ 256.

• Linearity error

Linearity error is the difference between actual conversion characteristics and ideal

conversion characteristics of an 8-bit A/D converter (so this does not include quantization

error).

Ideal conversion characteristics would be to divide the voltage between VREF and AGND

into 256 equal steps.

• Differential linearity error

Differential linearity error indicates slope of conversion characteristics. The change in

analog input voltage value that would change the digital output by one bit is ideally 1 LSB

= (VREF-AGND) ÷ 256, so differential linearity error is the difference between this ideal bit

size and the actual bit size anywhere in the conversion range.

• Zero scale error

Zero scale error is the difference between actual conversion characteristics and ideal

conversion characteristics at the point where digital output switches from 00H to 01H.

• Full scale error

Full scale error is the difference between actual conversion characteristics and ideal

conversion characteristics at the point where digital output switches from FEH to FFH.
