A Build-In Self-Test (BiST) circuit suitable for embedded RF Mixers in System-on-Chip applications is presented in this paper. This is a defect-oriented test scheme that dynamically sets the Mixer to operate in homodyne mode. The DC level generated at its output is used to control the oscillation frequency of a simple voltage controlled oscillator. Deviations of the oscillation frequency from the...
This paper describes RF built-in self test (BiST) techniques to test the performance of a RF CMOS integrated wireless transceiver using on-chip digital resources as both the stimuli and response analyzer. Using a defect-oriented approach, key RF blocks as well as the overall functionality and performance of the device are analyzed using a combination of block level and loopback testing. Using these...
This poster shows how to efficiently observe high-frequency figures of merit in RF circuits by measuring DC temperature with CMOS-compatible built-in sensors.
A built-in self-test (BIST) technique suitable for RF low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) is presented in this paper. With fully integrated amplitude detectors and logarithmic amplifiers, the BIST module can be employed as a generic platform for gain extraction of the device-under-test (DUT) without expensive testing instruments, while maintaining a reasonable hardware overhead and minimum loading effects...
