XTR300: What's the Gain Nonlinearity and Linearity Error?

Part Number: XTR300

Hi team 

There have two yellow signs in XTR300 datasheet, are they both nonlinearity parameter?  are they the same? 

FAE, Hao

  • HI Hao,

    The XTR300 can be configured in voltage output mode and current output mode. 

    Yes, both refer to the non-linearity error of the device, the error is specified as the max deviation in percent of span of output value from the straight line.

    The first spec is for the voltage output mode, and the second for the current output mode, but they are conceptually the same. 

    The Voltage Output Mode Gain non-linearity error is ±0.01% typ,  ±0.1% max of Full-Scale. The input signal span is 0-4V. The full-scale output span is ±10V. 

    The XTR300 is setup using the circuit conditions on top of the page: TA = +25°C, VS = ±20V, RLOAD = 800Ω, RSET = 2kΩ, ROS = 2kΩ, VREF = 4V, RGAIN = 10kΩ, Input Signal Span 0V to 4V, and CC = 100pF, unless otherwise noted.

       

    The Current Output Mode non-linearity error is ±0.01% typ,  ±0.1% max of Full-Scale; this is the deviation on the response from the straight line.  The input signal span is 0V to 4V, the full-scale output current span is IDRV=±24mA.  

    The XTR300 is setup using the circuit conditions on top of the page:  TA = +25°C, VS = ±20V, RLOAD = 800Ω, RSET = 2kΩ, ROS = 2kΩ, VREF = 4V, Input Signal Span 0 to 4V, and CC = 100pF, unless otherwise noted.

    Thank you and Best Regards,

  • Hi Luis,

    Ok, thanks to you.
