  • Abstract
    In this paper, a DFT methodology to test high-resolution ΣΔ modulators (ΣΔM) is introduced. The aim of the proposal is to reduce the test time required to conventional methodologies without degrading the accuracy of the results. A detailed description of the additional circuitry needed to perform these tests is presented as well as some initial simulation results to show the utility of the approach.
