Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Consider an A/D converter where the gain error is measured to be 5%. If the ideal transition voltage is 10V, calculate the actual transition voltage.
💡 Hint: Use the percentage difference to find the actual value.
You are using a bipolar A/D converter that shows a –2 LSB offset error at zero volts. If the total range is 16 LSBs, what is the offset error as a percentage of the full-scale range?
💡 Hint: Calculate the proportion of offset against the full range to derive the percentage.
