Accuracy vs Number of Channels Per ADC vs
Sample Rate
The graphs in this section illustrate the additional sources of error when scanning multiple channels per ADC at sample rates above 10 S/s. There are four sources of additional error that you need to add together: Gain Error, Offset Error, Differential Ghosting Error, and Common Mode Ghosting Error. Each of these errors depends on the sample rate and the number of channels being scanned per ADC.
For figures that depict a differential ghosting error, a change in the differential voltage between a channel and a preceding channel that scans the list of a single ADC causes differential ghosting error on a channel.
- 2 V (12 V-10 V) for channel 16.
- 4 V (10 V - 6 V) for channel 24.
- 6 V (6 V - 12 V) for channel 0, because channel 24 is before channel 0.
- 10 uV (2 V * 5 uV/V) for channel 16.
- 20 uV on channel 24.
- 30 uV for channel 0.
Common mode ghosting follows the same methodology as differential ghosting, but the error is a function of the common mode voltage of the channels being scanned.
