ILE (LSB)DLE (LSB)Offset Error (LSB)Gain Error (LSB)Range
Each PCI-DAS1602/12 is tested at the factory to assure the board’s overall error does not exceed ±3.0
LSB.
Total board error is a combination of Gain, Offset, Integral Linearity and Differential Linearity error. 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 are at their maximum
level, and causing error in the same direction. Although an examination of the chart and a summation of the
maximum theoretical errors shows that the board could theoretically exhibit a ±4.4 LSB error, our testing
assures this error is never realized in a board that we ship.
