Note Accuracies listed are valid for up to two years from the device external calibration.

0.1	-0.1	150	150	90	15	52	6.0

Note Sensitivity is the smallest voltage change that can be detected. It is a function of noise.

Table 11. AI Absolute Accuracy Values
Gain tempco	13 ppm/°C
Reference tempco	1 ppm/°C
INL error	60 ppm of range

AI Absolute Accuracy Equation

AbsoluteAccuracy = Reading · (GainError) + Range · (OffsetError) + NoiseUncertainty

GainError = ResidualAIGainError + GainTempco · (TempChangeFromLastInternalCal) + ReferenceTempco · (TempChangeFromLastExternalCal)
OffsetError = ResidualAIOffsetError + OffsetTempco · (TempChangeFromLastInternalCal) + INLError
NoiseUncertainty =
$\frac{Random Noise \cdot 3}{\sqrt{100}}$
for a coverage factor of 3 σ and averaging 100 points.

AI Absolute Accuracy Example

Absolute accuracy at full scale on the analog input channels is determined using the following assumptions:

TempChangeFromLastExternalCal = 10 °C
TempChangeFromLastInternalCal = 1 °C
number_of_readings = 100
CoverageFactor = 3 σ

For example, on the 10 V range, the absolute accuracy at full scale is as follows:

GainError = 60 ppm + 13 ppm · 1 + 1 ppm · 10 = 83 ppm
OffsetError = 20 ppm + 21 ppm · 1 + 60 ppm = 101 ppm
NoiseUncertainty =
$\frac{280 µ V \cdot 3}{\sqrt{100}}$
= 84 µV
AbsoluteAccuracy = 10 V · (GainError) + 10 V · (OffsetError) + NoiseUncertainty = 1,920 µV

Note Accuracies listed are valid for up to two years from the device external calibration.

Table 21. AO Absolute Accuracy Values

AO Absolute Accuracy Equation

AbsoluteAccuracy = OutputValue · (GainError) + Range · (OffsetError)
