Lesson 4 – Executing the ADC Linearity Test
ADC Differential Non-Linearity, DNL
ADC DNL is calculated from the transition voltages which are in
turn calculated from the histogram of the captured data points.
ADC Differential Non-Linearity, DNL
ADC Integral Non Linearity, INL
ADC INL measures the deviation of each code center point from
an ideal straight line.
