InADC-In depth analysis of analog to digital converter methods

Acronym InADC
Main objective The main goal of this research project is the advancement of the knowledge in the area of analogue to digital
converter testing. We propose the pursuit of the following objectives:
a) Study of the precision of Independently based Gain and Offset Error;
b) Development of a Weighted Least Squares Estimator for gain and offset error estimation;
c) Study of the influence of additive noise in the bias of ADC gain and offset error estimation;
d) Study of the use of sinusoidal stimulus signals instead of triangular stimulus signal as suggested in the IEEE
1057-94 standard procedure for ADC random noise estimation;
e) Derivation of an exact estimator for ADC random noise estimation;
f) Study of the influence of sinusoidal amplitude and offset on the bias and precision of the estimation of the fitted
sine wave parameters;
g) Derivation of an expression for the minimum number of samples required to achieve a given upper bound on the
estimation bias and precision;
h) Study of the precision of novel sine-fitting algorithms used in impedance measurement.
