Recognizable minimum input analog value.
This can be resolved into 28 = 256, that is AVDD ÷ 256 in 8 bits.
Deviation between ideal conversion characteristics as an 8-bit A/D converter
and actual conversion characteristics. (Not including quantization error.)
Ideal conversion characteristics means a step which divides voltage between
VRH and LRL into 256.
Smoothness of conversion characteristics.
1LSB = AVDD ÷ 256 is ideal for analog input voltage width corresponding to
change per 1 bit of digital output. Deviation between the ideal bit size and bit
size at arbitrary point in conversion range.
Deviation between ideal conversion characteristics of transfer point for digital
outputs "000H" to "001H" and actual conversion characteristics.
Deviation between ideal conversion characteristics of transfer point for digital
outputs "0FEH" to "0FFH" and actual conversion characteristics.
