Nominal Range Positive Full Scale	Nominal Range Negative Full Scale	Residual Gain Error (ppm of Reading)	Offset Tempco (ppm of Range/°C)	Random Noise, σ (μVrms)	Absolute Accuracy at Full Scale (μV)
10	-10	114	35	252	2,688
5	-5	120	36	134	1,379
2	-2	120	42	71	564
1	-1	138	50	61	313

Note For more information about absolute accuracy at full scale, refer to the AI Absolute Accuracy Example section.

Gain tempco	8 ppm/°C
Reference tempco	5 ppm/°C
Residual offset error	15 ppm of range
INL error	46 ppm of range

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

AI Absolute Accuracy Equation

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

GainError = ResidualGainError + GainTempco · (TempChangeFromLastInternalCal) + ReferenceTempco · (TempChangeFromLastExternalCal)
OffsetError = ResidualOffsetError + OffsetTempco · (TempChangeFromLastInternalCal) + INLError
NoiseUncertainty =
$\frac{Random Noise \cdot 3}{\sqrt{10, 000}}$
for a coverage factor of 3 σ and averaging 10,000 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 = 10,000
CoverageFactor = 3 σ

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

GainError = 114 ppm + 8 ppm · 1 + 5 ppm · 10 = 172 ppm
OffsetError = 15 ppm + 35 ppm ·1 + 46 ppm = 96 ppm
Noise Uncertainty =
$\frac{252 μ V \cdot 3}{\sqrt{10, 000}}$
= 7.6 µV
AbsoluteAccuracy = 10 V · (GainError) + 10 V · (OffsetError) + NoiseUncertainty = 2688 µV
