TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION (THD) is the ratio, expressed in dB or dBc, of the rms total of the first five

harmonic components at the output to the rms level of the input signal frequency as seen at the output. THD is

calculated as

THROUGHPUT TIME is the minimum time required between the start of two successive conversion. It is the

acquisition time plus the conversion time.

TOTAL UNADJUSTED ERROR is the worst deviation found from the ideal transfer function. As such, it is a

comprehensive specification which includes full scale error, linearity error, and offset error.
