  • Publication number: 20060272382
    Abstract: Systems, methods and circuits for implementing a self test in a slowly varying sensor. In one particular case, a circuit is provided that includes two filters operating in parallel. One of the filters is tailored for filtering normal operational signals, and operates at a first oversampling rate. The other filter is tailored for filtering test signals, and operates at a second oversampling rate. The second oversampling rate is generally less than the first oversampling rate. In various cases, the filter tailored for filtering normal operational signals may be programmed for operation across a plurality of oversampling rates.

  • Publication number: 20050207574
    Abstract: A system that has a pseudorandom number generator and a mapping system. The pseudorandom number generator generates a random number that is mapped by the mapping system to an output value that is selected from a set of predetermined output values. To increase the randomness of the sequence of numbers generated by the pseudorandom number generator, a tap and/or seed value of the pseudorandom number generator can be varied.

  • Publication number: 20050140450
    Abstract: A system and method for providing digital compensation and correction for an amplifier. The system is configured to provide a digitally compensated representation of a first amplified analog signal indicative of a first parameter based on a digital representation of the first amplified analog signal and a digital representation of a second analog signal indicative of a second parameter. The digitally compensated representation of the first amplified analog signal is determined by applying a pre-stored compensation factor to an offset adjustment calculation for the second parameter to provide a compensated offset adjustment. The compensated offset adjustment is combined with an adjusted gain to provide an offset and gain correction for weighting the first parameter to provide the digitally compensated representation of the first parameter. The adjusted gain can be determined by applying a pre-stored gain factor data to the second parameter.
