A Risks Assessment and Conformance Testing of Analog-to-digital Converters
نویسندگان
چکیده
The conformance test to which electronic devices are subjected after the manufacturing process, indicates if the device complies with an a priori given requirement set. On the basis of the test result, the component is considered to be working or not–working. However, because of the measurement uncertainty introduced by the testing bench assessment and by the chosen estimation algorithm, the manufacturer could include in the production process a component which does not respect the given requirements or could reject a working– device, thus affecting both testing and productivity costs. In this paper, it is considered the problem of the estimation of spectral parameters of analog–to–digital converters (ADCs). In particular, the risks to which both manufacturers and consumers of ADCs are subjected, are explicitly evaluated.

Improving adaptive resolution of analog to digital converters using least squares mean method
This paper presents an adaptive digital resolution improvement method for extrapolating and recursive analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The presented adaptively enhanced ADC (AE-ADC) digitally estimates the digital equivalent of the input signal by utilizing an adaptive digital filter (ADF). The least mean squares (LMS) algorithm also determines the coefficients of the ADF block. In this sch...
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...

© 2010 ETRI Journal, Volume 32, Number 1, February 2010 Oscillation-based testing of analog-to-digital converters represents a viable option for low-cost built-in self-testing in mixed-signal design. While numerous papers have addressed implementation issues, little attention has been paid to the measurement accuracy. In this letter, we highlight an inherent measurement uncertainty which has to...
متن کاملPerformance Testing of Logarithmic Analog- To-digital Converters
Abstract This paper describes test procedures to characterize the behavior of logarithmic analog-to-digital converters. Logarithmic A/D converters are usually characterized in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) or in deviation of the ideal characteristic in dB. There are a lack of test methods definition in the literature, as can be observed in the IEEE standard 1241 for these type of convert...
