power supply voltages.
Integral nonlinearity errors (INL) and differential nonlin-
earity errors (DNL) are independent of the common mode
voltage, however, the bipolar zero error (BZE) will vary.
The change in BZE is typically less than 0.1% of the
common mode voltage. Dynamic performance is also
affected by the common mode voltage. THD will degrade
as the inputs approach either power supply rail, from 96dB
with a common mode of 0V to 86dB with a common mode
of 2.5V or –2.5V.
Differential inputs allow greater flexibility for accepting
different input ranges. Figure 14b shows a circuit that
converts a 0V to 5V analog input signal with only an
additional buffer that is not in the signal path.

Full-Scale and Offset Adjustment
Figure 15a shows the ideal input/output characteristics
for the LTC1603. The code transitions occur midway
between successive integer LSB values (i.e., –FS +
0.5LSB, –FS + 1.5LSB, –FS + 2.5LSB,... FS – 1.5LSB,
FS –
0.5LSB). The output is two’s complement binary with
1LSB = FS – (–FS)/65536 = 5V/65536 = 76.3µV.
In applications where absolute accuracy is important,
offset and full-scale errors can be adjusted to zero. Offset
error must be adjusted before full-scale error. Figure 15b
shows the extra components required for full-scale error
adjustment. Zero offset is achieved by adjusting the offset
applied to the A

input. For zero offset error apply
