Definitions of A/D Converter Terms
• Resolution
Analog change identifiable to an A/D converter.
• Linearity error
Deviation between the straight line connecting zero transition point
(00 0000 0000 <- -> 00 0000 0001) and full-scale transition point
(11 1111 1110 <- -> 11 1111 1111) from actual conversion characteristics
• Differential linearity error
Deviation of the input voltage required for changing the output by one LSB, from its ideal value
