Figure 39: Integral nonlinearity of the analog outputs. The dashed lines indicate the ±1 LSB range. The INL is below ±1
LSB at 20 bit, meaning that the outputs achieve 1-ppm precision.
Offset and gain error
The offset of the SC5 outputs set to 0 V is measured with the SC5 connected directly to a
National Instruments 4071
PXI digital multimeter operated in DMM mode (7.5 digits). The maximum absolute offset compared to the DMM,
and the maximum relative offset between channels for uncalibrated and calibrated outputs is shown in the table
below. The following settings have been used for the measurement:
