Estimating the integral non-linearity of A/D-converters via the frequency domain

چکیده
This paper proposes a method to estimate the Integral Non-Linearity of AD-converters from the lower order output Fourier coeficients of a sinusoidal input. In order to get a high quality estimate, the lower order Fourier coeflcients have to be stabilized with respect to the rounding operation of the AD-converter. For this we use a computationally eficient and easily applied method named wobbling.

متن کاملAnalysis of Integral Nonlinearity in Radix-4 Pipelined Analog-to-Digital Converters
In this paper an analytic approach to estimate the nonlinearity of radix-4 pipelined analog-to-digital converters due to the circuit non-idealities is presented. Output voltage of each stage is modeled as sum of the ideal output voltage and non-ideal output voltage (error voltage), in which non-ideal output voltage is created by capacitor mismatch, comparator offset, input offset, and finite ga...

متن کاملLinearity Testing of A/D Converters Using Selective Code Measurement
Measurement of integral non-linearity (INL) and differential non-linearity (DNL) of an A/D converter using the histogram method incurs large test time. This test time can be a significant percentage of the total test time, especially for high resolution and low sampling-speed A/D converters. This paper describes a test methodology for measuring the INL and DNL specifications of A/D converters b...
متن کاملFrequency Domain Analysis for Integral Nonlinearity Measurement in A/d Converters with Dither
The paper examines the problem of achieving a fast measurement of nonlinearity for a dithered converter. It is shown that, since dither removes small-scale systematic errors, measuring the remaining large-scale (smooth) nonlinearity can be efficiently achieved via a fast frequency domain test, formerly analyzed by the authors for conventional converters without dither. The test appears especial...
