A novel test methodology is presented for characterizing DNL error in Flash analog to digital converters. This test technique accurately measures the resistance of each resistor in the Flash ladder and in turn, characterizes the DNL of a given chip. A testing time of approximately ms is achieved with a 30% increase in area for a 6-bit Flash ADC. When used in conjunction with standard automated test equipment, a reduction in total testing time and cost is predicted with minimal increase in area and power overhead.
