Analog Input Accuracy Formulas
Absolute Accuracy = Reading * Gain Error + Range * Offset Error + Noise Uncertainty
where
Gain Error = Residual Gain Error + Gain Tempco * Temp Change from Last Internal Cal
+ Reference Tempco * Temp Change from Last External Cal
Offset Error = Residual Offset Error + Offset Tempco * Temp Change from Last Internal
Cal + INL Error
Noise Uncertainty = (Random Noise * 3) / √100 for a coverage factor of 3 σ and
averaging 100 points
Absolute accuracy at full scale on the analog input channels is determined using the following
assumptions:
Temp Change from Last External Cal = 70 °C
Temp Change from Last Internal Cal = 1 °C
Number of Readings = 100
Coverage Factor = 3 σ
For example, on the ±10 V range, the absolute accuracy at full scale is as follows:
Gain Error = 115 ppm + 11 ppm * 1 + 5 ppm * 70
Gain Error = 476 ppm
Offset Error = 20 ppm + 44 ppm * 1 + 76 ppm
Offset Error = 140 ppm
Noise Uncertainty = (237 μV * 3) / √100
Noise Uncertainty = 72 μV
Absolute Accuracy = 10 V * 476 ppm + 10 V * 140 ppm + 72 μV
Absolute Accuracy = 6,231 μV, rounds to 6,230 μV

electrical supply system that powers equipment. This category is for measurements of voltages
from specially protected secondary circuits. Such voltage measurements include signal levels,
special equipment, limited-energy parts of equipment, circuits powered by regulated lowvoltage sources, and electronics.
Caution Do not connect the NI 9205 with DSUB to signals or use for
measurements within Measurement Categories II, III, or IV.
Note Measurement Categories CAT I and CAT O are equivalent. These test and
measurement circuits are for other circuits not intended for direct connection to the
MAINS building installations of Measurement Categories CAT II, CAT III, or

When the module powers on, a glitch occurs for 20 μs peaking at -1.5 V.
The power-down voltage peaks at 1.8 V before exponentially discharging to 0 V in 100 μs. You can
add a 10 kΩ load to reduce the peak voltage.
Range equals ±10.7 V
Uncalibrated accuracy refers to the accuracy achieved when acquiring in raw or unscaled modes
where the calibration constants stored in the module are not applied to the data.

NI C Series Overview
NI provides more than 100 C Series modules for measurement, control, and communication
applications. C Series modules can connect to any sensor or bus and allow for high-accuracy
measurements that meet the demands of advanced data acquisition and control applications.
•
Measurement-specific signal conditioning that connects to an array of sensors and signals
•
Isolation options such as bank-to-bank, channel-to-channel, and channel-to-earth ground
•
-40 °C to 70 °C temperature range to meet a variety of application and environmental
needs
•
Hot-swappable
The majority of C Series modules are supported in both CompactRIO and CompactDAQ
platforms and you can move modules from one platform to the other with no modification.
CompactRIO
CompactRIO combines an open-embedded architecture
with small size, extreme ruggedness, and C Series
modules in a platform powered by the NI LabVIEW
reconfigurable I/O (RIO) architecture. Each system
contains an FPGA for custom timing, triggering, and
processing with a wide array of available modular I/O to
meet any embedded application requirement.

CompactDAQ
CompactDAQ is a portable, rugged data acquisition platform
that integrates connectivity, data acquisition, and signal
conditioning into modular I/O for directly interfacing to any
sensor or signal. Using CompactDAQ with LabVIEW, you
can easily customize how you acquire, analyze, visualize,
and manage your measurement data.
