The Total Unadjusted Error (TUE) is the statistical combination of uncorrelated error sources in the linear region of operation for the DAC. Table 9-1 shows the correlative relationships between the various DAC errors that are defined in this chapter.
Error | Offset | Gain | Zero-Code | Full-Scale | DNL | INL |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Offset | - | - | Correlated | Correlated | - | - |
Gain | - | - | - | Correlated | - | - |
Zero-Code | Correlated | - | - | - | - | - |
Full-Scale | Correlated | Correlated | - | - | Correlated | Correlated |
DNL | - | - | - | Correlated | - | Correlated |
INL | - | - | - | Correlated | Correlated | - |
The TUE equation is shown below, where all error sources must first be normalized to a common unit format (such as LSBs or parts per million). Table 9-2 shows the calculations required to convert between different unit formats.
TUE Equation
EOffset = The static component of output error across the transfer function. See DAC Offset Error.
EGain = The proportionate component of output error across the transfer function. See DAC Gain Error.
EINL = The maximum deviation of the output from a straight-line fit of the transfer function. See DAC INL.

A single TUE calculation can be useful for comparing the relative performance between different DACs, but it may not produce accurate estimates of typical error in the system. For example, the TUE equation treats EGain as a uniform contributor of error across the transfer function, but EGain is actually a scaled error with minimal influence on the lower codes. An improved estimate of system error may be produced by breaking up the transfer function into multiple regions, where the error components are adjusted in the TUE calculation based on their expected contribution to each region.
