SERIAL DATA
Two straight binary (complementary) codes are available on
the serial output line: CSB and COB. The serial data is
available only during conversion and appears with MSB

DISCUSSION
OF SPECIFICATIONS
The ADC71 is specified to provide critical performance
criteria for a wide variety of applications. The most critical
specifications for an A/D converter are linearity, drift, gain
and offset errors. This ADC is factory-trimmed and tested
for all critical key specifications.

GAIN AND OFFSET ERROR
+15VDC
Initial Gain and Offset errors are factory-trimmed to typi-
cally ±0.1% of FSR (typically ±0.05% for unipolar offset) at
25°C. These errors may be trimmed to zero by connecting
external trim potentiometers as shown in Figures 6 and 7.

POWER SUPPLY SENSITIVITY
Analog Common
Changes in the DC power supplies will affect accuracy. The
power supply sensitivity is specified for ±0.003% of FSR/
%∆VS for ±15V supplies and ±0.001% of FSR/%∆S for +5
supplies. Normally, regulated power supplies with 1% or
less ripple are recommended for use with this ADC. See
Layout Precautions, Power Supply Decoupling and Figure
8.
