In our June 2006 cover story, “The world is still analog,” I described how engineers at Analog Devices use evaluation boards to characterize high-speed analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) (Ref. 1). To ...
The ability to faithfully digitize a sine wave is a good measure of the fidelity of a high-resolution ADC. Testing this ability on an 18-bit ADC demands a sine-wave generator with residual distortion ...
Histogram-based BIST techniques harness on-chip resources to reduce test times and cost while keeping pace with increased circuit complexity. As the integration between digital and analog circuitry in ...
