All digital/analog converter (DAC) systems experience gain and offset error. These are analog errors caused by many factors in the DAC and in the external signal path ...

For the DAC itself, various types of errors are given in the datasheet — for example, the integral-nonlinearity (INL) error, which relates to the difference between the ideal output voltage and the ...

A perfect D/A converter (DAC) produces an analog output voltage (or current) that is perfectly linear and independent of external factors such as temperature. Actual DACs, of course, are subject to ...
