PCI/AT-MIO-16XE-50 one-year accuracy specification of 0.01% ±412 µV. SCC-TC01/02 accuracy specification of 0.08%
±5 µV, and reference junction measurement accuracy of 0.5 °C. Assumes averaging. Non-averaged, single-point reading has
an additional uncertainty (up to ±0.1 °C for J-type thermocouple).
