HOW TO CALCU L ATE THE ACTUAL END-TO-END RESISTANCE
For example, if RAB = 10 kΩ and the resistor tolerance data readback shows 01010010 (see Table 5), the end-to-end resistance can be
calculated as:
DB[7]: 0 = negative (1 = positive)
DB[6:3]: 1010 = 10
DB[2:0]: 010 = 2 × 2
Then:
Tolerance = −10.25% and, therefore, R
