Abstract
In the context of analog BIST for A/D converters, this paper presents an implementation of an on-chip ramp generator. It is demonstrated that the proposed original adaptive scheme allows the internal generation of a highly sawtooth signal with a very precise control of the signal amplitude. In addition, the implementation of the adaptive ramp generator exhibits a very low silicon area
