  • Built-in self-test for ADC
    Patent number: 10079610
    Abstract: Representative implementations of devices and techniques provide a built-in self-test (BIST) for an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). Stimuli needed to test an ADC are generated within the chip containing the ADC. Evaluation circuitry is also available on-chip. Generation and evaluation circuits and systems are based on existing circuits and/or components of the chip.
