Abstract :
The paper describes an experimental investigation for the harmonization of the measures of the ADC dynamic performance in the frequency domain, according to the Standards in the field. The comparison results, involving spurious free dynamic range (SFDR), total harmonic distortion (THD), signal to noise and distortion ratio (SINAD), signal to noise ratio (SNR) and effective number of bits (ENOB), show a good degree of similitude among the results provided using procedures and formulas from different standards of IEEE and IEC.
