Abstract: Automatic testing for control valves is provided for diagnosing of actuators, including actuators not equipped with analog or discrete position transmitters. A valve controller confirms steady-state conditions for a turbo-compressor system that includes a control valve in a first position and sends, to an actuator for the control valve, a signal to initiate a partial valve stroke to move the control valve away from the first position. The valve controller receives feedback signals from sensors in the turbo-compressor system and monitors the feedback signals for a change from the steady-state conditions. When the monitoring detects a change from the steady-state conditions within a defined time period, the valve controller sends, to the actuator, a signal to return the control valve to the first position. When the monitoring does not detect a change from the steady-state conditions within the defined time period, the valve controller generates an alarm signal.

For example, the bit-conversion circuits may asynchronously and sequentially perform the SAR analog-to-digital conversion to determine different bits in the quantized representation of the input signal. Moreover, the ADC may selectively perform self-calibration of a global delay of the bit-conversions circuits. Note that the timing self-calibration may be iterative and subject to a constraint that a maximum conversion time is less than a target conversion time.
