COMPARISON OF THE PRECISION OF GAIN AND OFFSET ESTIMATIONS OBTAINED WITH THE HISTOGRAM TEST OF ADCS

F. CorrĂȘa Alegria
Abstract:
The Histogram Method of analogue to digital converter testing can be used to estimate their gain and offset error. There are two commonly used definitions for these parameters, namely "Terminal Based" and "Independently Based". In this paper the precision of those two different estimators is compared with the goal of assessing which one is more precise for the same number of samples and the same amount of additive noise.
