ANALOG INPUT BANDWIDTH is a measure of the frequency at which the reconstructed output fundamental drops 3 dB below its low frequency value for a full scale input. The test is performed with fIN equal to 100 kHz plus integer multiples of fCLK. The input frequency at which the output is −3 dB relative to the low frequency input signal is the full power bandwidth. APERTURE JITTER is the variation in aperture delay from sample to sample. Aperture jitter shows up as input noise. APERTURE DELAY See Sampling Delay. BOTTOM OFFSET is the difference between the input voltage that just causes the output code to transition to the first code and the negative reference voltage. Bottom Offset is defined as EOB = VZT–VRB, where VZT is the first code transition input voltage and VRB is the lower reference voltage. Note that this is different from the normal Zero Scale Error. CONVERSION LATENCY See PIPELINE DELAY. CONVERSION TIME is the time required for a complete measurement by an analog-to-digital converter. Since the Conversion Time does not include acquisition time, multiplexer set up time, or other elements of a complete conversion cycle, the conversion time may be less than the Throughput Time. DC COMMON-MODE ERROR is a specification which applies to ADCs with differential inputs. It is the change in the output code that occurs when the analog voltages on the two inputs are changed by an equal amount. It is usually expressed in LSBs.
