Gain error

Gain error

The “gain” of an analogue input or output is the scale factor that provides the nominal conversion relationship. Typically, this is the slope of the line when analogue voltage or current is plotted versus the corresponding digital values. Gain error is the deviation of the scale factor or slope of the line from the ideal or nominal gain value. Gain error is expressed in percent of the input or output value.
