Abstract: A digital conversion system including a sigma-delta converter, a tone generator that generates injects a tone signal into the conversion path of the sigma-delta converter at a frequency that is outside operating signal frequency range, a tone detector that isolates and detects a level of the injected tone signal and provides a corresponding tone level value, a tone ratio comparator that converts the tone level value into a tone level ratio and that compares the converted tone level ratio with an expected tone level ratio to provide an error signal, and a loop controller that converts the error signal to a correction signal to adjust a loop filter frequency the sigma-delta converter. Tones may be serially injected one at a time or simultaneously in parallel for determining a measured tone level ratio for comparison with a corresponding one of multiple stored expected tone level ratios.
