Abstract

In this paper, a new method for the static test of analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) is proposed. This method uses a variable step size calculated by using an extrapolated convergence factor method. It is shown that it speeds up dramatically the static characterisation procedure and that it could substitute with advantage the traditional static test procedure, especially when a small step size is used. Results obtained by different methods as a function of the step size, of the number of samples and of the relation between the ADC resolution and the expected standard deviation of the noise present in the experimental setup, are shown.
