Direct and Indirect Methods of ENOB Evaluation and Analysis

Anatoliy Platonov, Łukasz Małkiewicz
  • Abstract:
    The paper presents the backgrounds of analytically grounded approach enabling strict theoretic and experimental analysis of the cyclic analogue-to-digital converters (CADC) [1,2] performance. Methods of assessment of the effective number of bits (ENOB [3,4]) and effective resolution (EFR, [5]) of these converters are considered. The analysis is based on results of works [6-8] and develops the direct approach to real ENOB values evaluation proposed in [9]. There is shown the specific for CADC and important for design and applications effect of normalisation of the output quantization noise with the growth of the number of cycles.
