Linearity error is the deviation from the best bit straight line. See Figure 11.
Linearity error is calculated by
Equation 6
where LinEr
is sensor’s measured Z-axis output [counts] on input acceleration acc, Output
nominal output [counts] on input acceleration acc, Sens is sensor’s nominal sensitivity [counts/g] and
FS is sensor’s full scale measuring range [g] (for example for CMA3000-A01 with ±2g setting →
FS = 2 g).
Sensor’s ideal output Output
accelerations from –FS to FS.
Output noise n
values when the sensor is in 0 g position at room temperature. Average noise/axis is calculated by
LinEr
