Testing development for ADC on automatic test system

Analog-to-digital converter(ADC) is the fundamental module in mixed signal system. As the clock-rate of the device is increasing continuously, accurate and effective measurement of ADC dynamic and static parameters becomes more and more important. The ADC static and dynamic parameter testings are introduced in this article. The ADC testing environment configuration is discussed in detail. A computer aided testing technique for ADC is presented, which is cost-effective and highly reliable. The proposed method was verified in BC3192V50 test system.EI02279-2832
