Total analog output error is a combination of gain, offset, integral linearity, and differential linearity error. The
overall absolute 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 are both at their maximum
level, and causing error in the same direction. Though this is very uncommon, it is still possible.

Software programmable
ADC Interrupt sources
DAQ_ACTIVE: Interrupt is generated when a DAQ sequence is active.
DAQ_STOP:
Interrupt is generated when A/D Stop Trigger In is detected.
DAQ_DONE:
Interrupt is generated when a DAQ sequence completes.
DAQ_FIFO_1/2_FULL:
Interrupt is generated when ADC FIFO is ½ full.
DAQ_SINGLE: Interrupt is generated after each conversion completes.
External
Interrupt is generated via edge-sensitive transition on the Interrupt In pin on the
40-pin connector. Rising/falling edge polarity selection. The Interrupt In pin is pulled
up to 5 V through a 10 K resistor.
External Interrupt Enable
Active low Interrupt Enable signal on the 40-pin connector. The Interrupt Enable pin
is pulled up to 5 V through a 10 K resistor.
