Frequency Accuracy 145

Frequency Average

For frequency average, you must know:

 Application frequency (F

in

)

 Number of accumulated in sample time (Counts)

Use the following equation to calculate frequency accuracy in totalizer mode
for frequency period:

EXAMPLE

For example, in an application with the following
conditions:

 25 meter samples
 123Hz frequency
 60°C operating temperature

accuracy is determined with the following equation:

Accuracy =

(1) x (100)

(0.02) x ( Number of meter samples) x (F

in

)

Accuracy =

(1) x (100)

(0.02) x (25) x (123)

Accuracy = 1.626 + 0.01

Accuracy = +/- 1.636%

+ 0.01

Value is added to
accuracy to account for
the crystal error over
the temperature range
