CALCULATION EXAMPLES OF OVERALL ACCURACY
1. Frequency modulation
E.g.: Input range -10 to +10 V, input span 1 to 5 V, max. frequency 10 kHz
Input accuracy = Input range (20 V) ÷ Input span (4 V) x Input accuracy (0.01 %) = 0.05 %
Output accuracy = 0.10 %
Overall accuracy = ±0.15 %
2. Pulse width modulation
E.g.: Input range -10 to +10 V, input span 1 to 5 V, frequency 1 kHz
Input accuracy = 0.05 % (same as above)
Output accuracy = 0.20 %
Overall accuracy = ±0.25 %
