  • Abstract
    An analytical description of the phase plane behavior of an amplitude-balanced dual-tone signal for nonlinear analog-to-digital converters testing is presented. A new figure of merit for the phase plane coverage quality of the dual-tone test signal is proposed and evaluated, and finally, conditions for optimal input frequency selection are analytically derived for practical calibration applications.
