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

harmonic frequencies. Accurate THD measurement requires a spectrally pure sine wave (monotone) at the

ADC input.

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

acquisition time plus the conversion and read out times. In the case of the ADC082S051, this is 16 SCLK

periods.
