5.6 Using the INL/DNL Tool
The INL/DNL tool measures the linearity of the of the ADS9817EVM by applying a full-scale, low-distortion
sinusoidal input signal. The accuracy improves if the number of
hits per code
is increased at the cost of extra
test time. Select the channel to measure and the hits per code, then press the
GET INL/DNL
button (as shown in
) to run this tool.
1. Select “INL/DNL”
2.
Select the hits-percode for
linearity analysis. More hits
produces more accurate results
at the cost of test time.
128 = 120 seconds
3. Select channel to
analyze, and press “GET
