DESCRIPTION
Logic supply pin (+5V)
Linearity error refers to the deviation of each individual code
from a line drawn from “zero” through “full scale”. The point
used as “zero” occurs / LSB (1.22mV for 10V span) before
2
the first code transition (all zeros to only the LSB “on”). “Full

2
sition (to all ones). The deviation of a code from the true straight
line is measured from the middle of each particular code.

nonlinearity of ± / LSB. For these grades, this means that an

analog value which falls exactly in the center of a given code
width will result in the correct digital output code. Values nearer
the upper or lower transition of the code width may produce the
next upper or lower digital output code. The HI-X74(A)J is
guaranteed to ±1 LSB max error. For this grade, an analog
value which falls within a given code width will result in either
the correct code for that region or either adjacent one.

Differential Linearity Error (No Missing Codes)
A specification which guarantees no missing codes requires
that every code combination appear in a monotonic increas-
ing sequence as the analog input level is increased. Thus
every code must have a finite width. For the HI-X74(A)K and L
grades, which guarantee no missing codes to 12-bit resolu-
tion, all 4096 codes must be present over the entire operating
temperature ranges. The HI-X74(A)J grade guarantees no
missing codes to 11-bit resolution over temperature; this
means that all code combinations of the upper 11 bits must be
present; in practice very few of the 12-bit codes are missing.

Unipolar Offset

The first transition should occur at a level / LSB above analog
2
common. Unipolar offset is defined as the deviation of the
actual transition from that point. This offset can be adjusted as
discussed on the following pages. The unipolar offset tempera-
ture coefficient specifies the maximum change of the transition
point over temperature, with or without external adjustment.

nominal full scale (9.9963V for 10.000V full scale). The full
scale calibration error is the deviation of the actual level at
the last transition from the ideal level. This error, which is
typically 0.05 to 0.1% of full scale, can be trimmed out as
shown in Figures 2 and 3. The full scale calibration error
over temperature is given with and without the initial error
trimmed out. The temperature coefficients for each grade
indicate the maximum change in the full scale gain from the
initial value using the internal 10V reference.
