  • Abstract
    A new way to estimate the signal-to-noise ratio in SigmaDelta modulators is presented. It showed how using DC levels at the input of the modulator it is possible to predict its dynamic performance. This proposed scheme is suitable for an all digital BIST scheme which can be useful during wafer sort
