Understanding the operational characteristics of the
device’s resistor components is important to the system
design.

6.3.1.1
INL error for these devices is the maximum deviation
between an actual code transition point and its
corresponding ideal transition point after offset and
gain errors have been removed. These endpoints are
from 0x00 to 0x3F. Refer to
Positive INL means higher resistance than ideal.
Negative INL means lower resistance than ideal.

DNL error is the measure of variations in code widths
from the ideal code width. A DNL error of zero would
imply that every code is exactly 1 LSb wide.

The ratiometric temperature coefficient quantifies the
error in the ratio R
This is typically the critical error when using a
potentiometer device (MCP4021 and MCP4023) in a
voltage divider configuration.

The absolute temperature coefficient quantifies the
error in the end-to-end resistance (nominal resistance
