ADC Nonlinearity: Integral Nonlinearity<br />

Stephan Henzler Mixed-Signal-Electronics 2012/13<br />

Integral Nonlinearity (INL):<br />

The INL error is defined as the<br />

deviation of each analog value<br />

from a straight line (after<br />

removal of gain and offset error).<br />

If the straight line through the<br />

endpoints of the converter’s<br />

transfer curve is chosen as<br />

reference, the INL equals the<br />

relative inaccuracy. Alternatively<br />

a regression line can be used as<br />

reference. It depends on the<br />

application which definition<br />

should be applied.<br />
