  • Abstract
    A built-in self-test (BIST) scheme to quickly estimate differential nonlinearity (DNL) is proposed. The proposed scheme detects serious code deviation and reduces needed samples. Compared with the conventional code density test, the scheme reduces 97% sample count for a 10-bit approximation register analog-to-digital converters (SAR ADC).
