4.1   Uncalibrated Performance 

 

The uncalibrated performance is affected by two primary error sources.  
These are the channel's offset and gain errors.  The use of channel specific 
calibration coefficients to accurately adjust offset and gain is important 
because the worst case uncalibrated error can be significant (although the 
typical uncalibrated errors observed may be much less).  The maximum 
uncalibrated error is summarized as follows. 

AP231 Model 

 

AD5761 @ -40oC to 85oC: 

Linearity Error is +/- 0.003% FSR maximum (i.e. +/-2 LSB). 

Offset Error is +/- 0.05% FSR (i.e. 20V SPAN) maximum.   

Gain Error is +/- 0.1% FSR maximum. 

Total Error 

+/- 0.153% FSR maximum (+/-98.5 LSB)

 

AP220 Model 

 

AD5721 @ -40oC to 85oC: 

Linearity Error is +/- 0.0122% FSR maximum (i.e. +/-0.5 LSB). 

Offset Error is +/- 0.05% FSR (i.e. 20V SPAN) maximum. 

Gain Error is +/- 0.1% FSR maximum. 

Total Error 

+/- 0.1622% FSR maximum (+/-6.64 LSB)

 

 

Typically, each error component is much less than its maximum and all error 
components do not reinforce each other.  Thus, typical errors are much less 
than that shown above.
