う。 Among the test items for analog-to-digital converters (hereinafter referred to as A/D converters), there is something called missing bits. For example, in an A/D converter with an n-bit (n is an integer greater than or equal to 2) digital output, there are 2 n digital codes, and among them, there is a certain code for the analog input. There are things I don't do. This is called bit missing.

A staircase voltage was applied to the analog input terminal of the D converter, and digital codes corresponding to the analog values of each stage were read, processed, and judged. However, if an n-bit A/D converter is tested with an accuracy of m stages per code, and the processing time is t, the processing time for making a determination is m.2 n.t. becomes. If an attempt is made to test with high accuracy, the voltage difference per stage will be small (that is, m will be large), and the measurement time will become even longer.

入力端子AIDに夫々接続される。 In FIG. 1, the analog input terminal A IN of the A/D converter B to be tested is connected to the voltage output terminal V OUT of the staircase voltage source A, and the digital output terminal D OUT of the A/D converter B is When at least one bit changes in the digital output code of A/D converter B, a circuit that detects the change and generates one pulse (hereinafter abbreviated as bit detection circuit) is connected to input terminal B IN of C. It is also connected to one comparison input terminal DIA of the comparison circuit D. The output terminal P OUT of the bit detection circuit C is connected to the clock input terminal C IN of the counting circuit E and to the output voltage holding input terminal A IH of the staircase voltage source A. The counting result of the counting circuit E is sent to the output terminal C.
It is output from OUT and input to the other comparison input terminal DIB of the comparison circuit D. Output terminal D of comparison circuit D

ず、比較回路で不良を判定することができる。 Now set the state before the test as follows. Voltage source A
The initial analog output voltage of is set to 0V, and the output voltage is changed stepwise over time. Since the input terminal A IN of A/D converter B inputs 0V in the initial state, its digital output terminal D OUT terminal (n bits)
becomes code 0. Also, the counting circuit E is cleared,
A code 0, which is the same as the output code of A/D converter B, is output from the terminal C OUT . Note that the counting circuit E is a counting circuit that adds 1 each time it receives one output pulse from the bit detection circuit C. When the test starts, the analog voltage increases in steps, and when the voltage exceeds the first threshold of A/D converter B, the output code of A/D converter B changes. Then the code of 1 (00...
01). At this time, this change in the output code is detected by the bit detection circuit C, and one pulse is output from the output terminal P OUT of the bit detection circuit C. This pulse is the output voltage holding input terminal A of the staircase voltage source A.
It is input to IH and changes in analog output voltage are temporarily stopped. Further, this pulse is input to the pulse input terminal C IN of the counting circuit E, and the counting circuit E counts +1, and the output becomes code 1 (00...01). In this case, since the output code of the A/D converter B and the counting code of the counting circuit E match, the comparing circuit D outputs a signal indicating that both inputs are equal to the input terminal J of the determining circuit J.
Enter I. In the judgment circuit, when different inputs are received or when all the same inputs are received, a means is taken to transmit the result to the outside. Further, the output of the comparator circuit D is input to the output voltage holding release input terminal A ID of the staircase wave voltage source A, and the voltage held until then rises again in a stepwise manner. Then, when the next threshold voltage is exceeded, the output code of the A/D converter is further increased by 1 and the same thing as described above is performed. If bit omission occurs, when the output of A/D converter B is code P, the staircase wave voltage will rise and if it exceeds the threshold level, it will become P if it is normal.
A +1 code is generated, but because the P+1 code is missing, it may become a P+2 code. However, since only one pulse enters the input of the counting circuit E, its counting code is only P+1, and a comparison circuit can determine whether it is defective.
なお、階段波電圧VOUTが1ステツプづつ下降
していく場合は、計数回路Eとしてパルスが入る
ごとに−1を行う計数機能をもつ回路にすれば前
述と同様のことが行なえる。 Incidentally, when the staircase wave voltage V OUT decreases one step at a time, the same thing as described above can be achieved by using a circuit having a counting function of incrementing by -1 every time a pulse is input as the counting circuit E.
以上が本発明の原理で、1コードの処理時間を
をtとすると、コードが変化した時しか処理を行
わない為、nビツトのA/D変換器の判定を行う
為の処理時間は2n・tとなる。 The above is the principle of the present invention. If the processing time for one code is t, processing is performed only when the code changes, so the processing time for making a decision on an n-bit A/D converter is 2 n・It becomes t.

波電圧源A、計数回路E、比較回路D及び判定回
路Fは既存の回路で実現出来るが、ビツト検出回
路Cは次の実施例で実現出来る。 This is due to the fact that with conventional testing machines, when the voltage difference per stage was reduced in order to increase accuracy, the measurement time increased accordingly (with conventional testing machines, the processing time for making a judgment was m・2 n・t (where m has an accuracy of m steps per code), and the present invention has no relation to m, so it has the advantage of shortening the measurement time. In addition, in the present invention, the processing time t is a short time from the output pulse of the bit detection circuit C to the output of the comparator circuit D, and the processing can be performed at a very high speed. Processing can be done within the time required for each stage, making it possible to measure missing bits at extremely high speed. Regarding the circuit configuration, the staircase voltage source A, the counting circuit E, the comparing circuit D and the determining circuit F can be realized by existing circuits, but the bit detection circuit C can be realized by the following embodiment.

が実現出来る。 FIG. 2 shows the configuration of bit detection circuit C. L is a temporary storage circuit and M is a comparison circuit. Now assume that the output code of A/D converter B is Q. Temporary memory circuit L
contains the same code Q. When the input of A/D converter B changes and the output code Q becomes Q+1, Q+1 will be input to the input terminal M IA of the comparator circuit M, and Q will be input to the input terminal M IB , so that the output of the comparator circuit will be Change. This change becomes the clock input L CIN of the temporary storage circuit, which then stores Q+1. As a result, both input terminals of the comparison circuit M have Q+1.
is input and a match signal is output. This coincidence signal becomes a pulse input to the counting circuit E. That is, the first
The input terminal B IN of the bit detection circuit C in the figure corresponds to the input terminal L IN of the temporary storage circuit L in FIG. 2 and the input terminal M IA of the comparator circuit M, and the bit detection circuit C in FIG.
The output terminal P OUT corresponds to the output terminal M OAB of the comparator circuit M in FIG. This makes it possible to realize a bit detection circuit.
