Accuracy

The state of being correct or true. Accuracy is important both in measuring present data and predicting future data. An accurate analyst or forecaster is rewarded with influence (and often bonuses), while a consistently inaccurate one rarely remains with a company.

Analog Device's AD5791 high-accuracy 20-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is said to be the industry's first to feature true 1-ppm (parts per million) resolution and accuracy. The AD5791 features 1-ppm resolution and accuracy, low noise (sub 1 ppm), fast refresh rates (1 *s), and low output drift (sub 1 ppm), a relative accuracy specification of **1 LSB max, and operation is guaranteed monotonic with a [+ or -] 1 LSB DNL max specification.
