(3) Quantization error
This is an error of ±1/2 LSB that inevitably occurs when an analog value is converted into a digital value. Because
the A/D converter converts analog input voltages in a range of ±1/2 LSB into the same digital codes, a quantization
error is unavoidable.
This error is not included in the overall error, zero-scale error, full-scale error, integral linearity error, or differential
linearity error in the characteristics table.

(4) Zero-scale error
This is the difference between the actually measured analog input voltage and its theoretical value when the digital
output changes from 0…000 to 0…001 (1/2 LSB).
