Abstract:
In an example, a system includes an input channel and a voltage to delay converter (V2D) coupled to the input channel. The system also includes a first multiplexer coupled to the V2D and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) coupled to the first multiplexer. The system includes a second multiplexer coupled to the input channel and an auxiliary ADC coupled to the second multiplexer. The system includes calibration circuitry coupled to an output of the auxiliary ADC, where the calibration circuitry is configured to correct a non-linearity in a signal provided by the input channel. The calibration circuitry is also configured to determine the non-linearity of the signal provided to the ADC relative to the signal provided to the auxiliary ADC.
