Abstract

Virtual instruments let the user define custom measurement approaches to cope with specific goals. The use of virtual instruments also raises an important issue, which concerns the evaluation of the uncertainty of the measurement results. To face this issue, a change in the praxis currently adopted to interpret the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) datasheets released by the manufacturers for documenting their products seems necessary. This change should be the consequence of modifications and/or integrations of the standard documents adopted by the same manufactures, by the way proposed by the scientific community. Modifications and/or integrations should assure the compliance between parameters and methods for ADC testing and recommendations contained in the guide to the expression of uncertainty in measurement.
