Explanation of Analog Output Specifications
Relative accuracy in a D/A system is the same as nonlinearity, because no uncertainty is added due to code width.
Unlike an ADC, every digital code in a D/A system represents a specific analog value rather than a range of values.
The relative accuracy of the system is therefore limited to the worst-case deviation from the ideal correspondence (a
straight line), excepting noise. If a D/A system has been calibrated perfectly, then the relative accuracy specification
reflects its worst-case absolute error.
Differential nonlinearity in a D/A system is a measure of deviation of code width from 1 LSB. In this case, code
width is the difference between the analog values produced by consecutive digital codes. A specification of ±1 LSB
differential nonlinearity ensures that the code width is always greater than 0 LSBs (guaranteeing monotonicity) and
is always less than 2 LSBs.
