Abstract :
ADDA is a versatile development platform for AD- and DA-converters. It contains performance analysis algorithms for converters enabling the user to characterise converters and create data-sheets. The converters characterised are either simulated or real products. Currently characterisation and modelling of Nyquist converters are included with delta-sigma converters to follow in a future release. The platform, written in C-language, is free software released with the Gnu General Public License (GPL) and is freely available for all parties interested to contribute with models, analysis methods or measurement setups. New models of converters are easily included in the platform following included templates and the instructions in the README.
