Original Abstract

This paper introduces the stimulus error identification and removal method for accurately testing ADC linearity using signal generators that may be significantly less linear than the device under test. Under this approach, two imprecise nonlinear but functionally related excitations are applied to the ADC input to obtain two sets of ADC output data. The algorithm then uses the redundant information from the two sets of data to accurately identify the nonlinearity errors in the stimuli. The algorithm then removes the stimulus error from the ADC output data, allowing the ADC nonlinearity to be accurately measured.
