    Abstract: A digital-to-analog converter has an output. An analog-to-digital converter senses a voltage at the output of the digital-to-analog converter and generates a digital voltage signal. A source mismatch estimator processes the digital voltage signal to output an error signal indicative of current source mismatch within the digital-to-analog converter. An error code generator generates a digital calibration signal from the error signal. The digital calibration signal is converted by a redundancy digital-to-analog converter to an analog compensation signal for application to the output of analog-to-digital converter to nullify effects of the current source mismatch.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a plurality of flip-flops and a global reset network for resetting the flip-flops. The integrated circuit includes a synchronous clock delay circuit that delays, responsive to a global reset signal, a transition in a clock signal provided to the flip-flops. The delay in the transition of the clock signal ensures that all of the flip-flops receive the global reset signal within a same delayed clock cycle and that the flip-flops do not receive the global reset signal during a rising or falling edge of the clock signal.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing an on-system built-in self-test of a converter are provided. In the method, a controller generates a test signal and outputs the test signal to the converter. The controller receives a response signal from the converter and determines a plurality of bin powers of a plurality of bins, respectively, of a frequency domain signal representative of the response signal. The controller determines a figure of merit for the converter based on a first bin power of a first bin of the plurality of bin powers, where the first bin corresponds to a frequency of the test signal.

    Abstract: Data words are received in parallel in response to an edge of a master clock signal and selected for serial output in response to a select signal. For a detected temporal offset of the serially output data words, the generation of the select signal and the master clock signal are controlled to correct for the temporal offset by shifting timing of the edge of the master clock signal and adjusting a sequence of values for the select signal that are generated within one cycle of the master clock signal. For a backward temporal offset, at least one count value in the sequence of values is skipped and the edge of the master clock signal occurs earlier in time. For a forward temporal offset, at least one count value in the sequence of values is held and the edge of the master clock signal occurs later in time.

    Abstract: A digital filtering method includes receiving a digital signal, and passing the digital signal through a Pth order comb cascade. The method includes beginning pre-computing of intermediate integrator states of a Pth order integrator cascade as a function of the digital signal, prior to receiving output from a last comb of the Pth order comb cascade. The outputs from each comb of the Pth order comb cascade are then applied to the pre-computed intermediate integrator states to thereby produce a filtered version of the digital signal. The Pth order comb cascade may operate at a sampling frequency, and the pre-computing of the intermediate integrator states is performed at the sampling frequency, while the application of the outputs from each comb of the Pth order comb cascade to the pre-computed intermediate integrator states is performed at a multiple of the sampling frequency.

    Abstract: Data weighted averaging of a thermometric coded input signal is accomplished by controlling the operation of a crossbar switch matrix to generate a current cycle of a data weighted averaging output signal using a control signal generated in response to feedback of a previous cycle of the data weighted averaging output signal. The control signal specifies a bit location for a beginning logic transition of the data weighted averaging output signal in the current cycle based on detection of an ending logic transition of the data weighted averaging output signal in the previous cycle.
