HARMONIC DISTORTION AND ADC

Abstract

The influence of different ADC nonlinearities on the measurement of ADC intermodulation products is discussed. It is shown that the amplitudes of harmonics and intermodulation products can be predicted only if the low order nonlinearity of the transfer curve is dominant and if a sufficient level of input noise or dither is used.
