(1) For accurate measurements through the full differential measurement range, the common mode must be restricted to the Common Mode Voltage Range (CMVR), a subset of the maximum operating range. The CMVR equals the maximum operating range minus the configured differential range; in effect, this reserves half of the differential input range near each operating range limit.
(2) This injection occurs each time a multiplexer device captures a new sample.
Assumes a conventional input signal 0 V at 0 Ω.
(3) Assumes proper calibration and environment temperature regulated to 25 °C
(4) Does not cover the settling time that follows a slewing transient.

(1) Noise levels are given as RMS (standard deviation), where one unit corresponds to one LSB count of the converter.
(2) Quiescent noise is measured with constant input level, nominally held at 0 V through 0 Ω resistance, ignoring offset.
(3) Repeatability tests use 10 kHz, sinusoidal excitation with amplitude > -0.5 dB relative to full converter range,
and sampling rate is 2 x 10⁵ samples per second.
(4) Same as repeatability tests but sampling at 1.0 x 10⁶ samples per second.
