ADC Accuracy
specifies the ADC conversion performance excluding any errors due to current injection,
input capacitance and source resistance.

ADC Accuracy Definitions
For the following definitions see also Figure B-1.
Differential non-linearity (DNL) is defined as the difference between two adjacent switching steps.
The integral non-linearity (INL) is defined as the sum of all DNLs:
