Accuracy Components
Gain error Trimmable by potentiometer to 0
Offset error Trimmable by potentiometer to 0
PGA linearity error ±1.3 LSB typ , ±10.0 LSB max
Integral linearity error ±0.5 LSB typ , ±3.0 LSB max
Differential linearity error ±0.5 LSB typ, ±2.0 LSB max
Total board error is a combination of gain, offset, differential linearity and integral linearity error. The
theoretical absolute accuracy of the board may be calculated by summing these component errors. Worst case
error is realized only in the unlikely event that each of the component errors is at their maximum level, and
causing error in the same direction.

Absolute error change per °C temperature change is a combination of the Gain and Offset drift of many
components. The theoretical worst case error of the board may be calculated by summing these component
errors. Worst case error is realized only in the unlikely event that each of the component errors is at their
maximum level, and causing error in the same direction.
