A System for the Characterization of High Resolution DACs and ADCs

Umberto Pogliano
Abstract:
This paper describes the system under construction at I.N.Ri.M. for the characterization of high resolution DACs and ADCs. The main measurement instrument used as a reference is a high precision sampling multimeter, which is properly configured for the measurement of both dc and ac voltages supplied by the DAC under test. A proper voltage pattern is supplied to the ADC under test by means of a multichannel output board put inside a computer, combined by suitable supplementary electronic circuits. The constructed signal is then measured by the multimeter and analyzed by the computer.
