    Abstract: Body text indent—does not have paragraph numbering turned on. Not needed in the Abstract. An integrated circuit device includes a digital sine wave generator configured to produce portions of a digital sine wave, a combiner circuit configured to output each of the portions of the digital sine wave combined with a respective calibration code during operation in a post-production dynamic test mode, a digital to analog converter (DAC) configured to output an analog sine wave based on the output of the combiner circuit, and a test analog to digital converter (ADC) including an input terminal directly connected to the output of the DAC, and configured to generate a second digital sine wave based on the analog sine wave.

    Abstract: In an integrated circuit, a bootstrapped switch includes a capacitor and first, second, and third transistors. The first transistor has a first current electrode coupled to a first voltage supply node and a gate electrode coupled to a first circuit node. The second transistor has a first current electrode coupled to a second voltage supply terminal, a second current electrode coupled to a top terminal of the capacitor, and a control electrode coupled to the first circuit node. The third transistor has a first current electrode coupled to the first voltage supply terminal, a control electrode coupled to the first circuit node, and a second current electrode coupled to a body terminal of the second transistor. The fourth transistor has a first current electrode coupled to the body terminal of the second transistor, and a second current electrode coupled to the top terminal of the capacitor.

    Abstract: An example analog-test-bus (ATB) apparatus includes a plurality of comparator circuits, each having an output port, and a pair of input ports of opposing polarity including an inverting port and a non-inverting port, a plurality of circuit nodes to be selectively connected to the input ports of a first polarity, and at least one digital-to-analog converter (DAC) to drive the input ports of the plurality of comparator circuits. The apparatus further includes data storage and logic circuitry that accounts for inaccuracies attributable to the plurality of comparator circuits by providing, for each comparator circuit, a set of calibration data indicative of the inaccuracies for adjusting comparison operations performed by the plurality of comparator circuits.
