Investigation of complex algorithm of digital signal processing of high-speed DACs signals for settling time testing

The paper represents the results of the investigation of the complex Digital Signal Processing algorithm for the processing of the measurement signals of the Settling Time Measurement of the Digital-to-Analog Converters. The results of the investigations show that the obtained results ensure suppression of the white noise and 1/f noise by up to 100 times and it is possible to measure settling times of up to 16 bit high-speed DACs with readout levels of ± 0.5 LSB while measurement errors not exceed ± 0.6 ns.
