  • Abstract
    This paper discusses the work done in the testing and measurement of differential nonlinearity (DNL) of analog- to-digital converters (ADCs) by applying a novel testing technique of wavelet transform. The results of the new method are compared with conventional testing methods. The wavelet transform technique shows significant advantage over the conventional techniques.
