MAX108

All supplies should be decoupled with large tantalum or
electrolytic capacitors at the point they enter the PCB.
For best performance, bypass all power supplies to the
appropriate ground with a 10µF tantalum capacitor to
filter power-supply noise, in parallel with a 0.1µF
capacitor and a high-quality 47pF ceramic chip capaci-
tor located very close to the MAX108 device to filter
very high-frequency noise.

Static Parameter Definitions

Integral Nonlinearity

Integral nonlinearity (INL) is the deviation of the values
on an actual transfer function from a straight line. This

straight line can be either a best-straight-line fit or a line
drawn between the endpoints of the transfer function,
once offset and gain errors have been nullified. The
static linearity parameters for the MAX108 are mea-
sured using the best-straight-line fit method.

Differential Nonlinearity

Differential nonlinearity (DNL) is the difference between
an actual step width and the ideal value of 1LSB. A
DNL error specification of less than 1LSB guarantees
no missing codes and a monotonic transfer function.
