Abstract

The paper is aimed at experimentally analyzing the different DAC glitch definitions and measurement methods proposed in literature and adopted by manufacturers. Unfortunately, in fact, there is no universally accepted and unambiguous definition of a glitch. Therefore, the presented research work can give contributions and ideas for discussions focused to solve this problem and develop a new standard dealing with DAC terminology and test methods. An experimental analysis has been carried out and the obtained results have been critically analyzed to provide possible indications for the definition of a univocal and reproducible glitch measurement method.
