A method for parameter extraction of analogue sine-wave signals for mixed-signal built-in-self-test applications

This paper presents a method for extracting, in the digital domain, the main characteristic parameters of an analogue sine-wave signal. The required circuitry for on-chip implementation is very simple and robust, which makes the present approach very suitable for BIST applications. Solutions in this sense are addressed together with simulation results that validate the feasibility of the proposed approach.
