Zusammenfassung: | A semiconductor chip providing on-chip self-testing of an Analog-to-Digital Converter, ADC, implemented in the semiconductor chip is provided. The semiconductor chip comprises the ADC and a Digital-to-Analog Converter, DAC, configured to generate and supply a radio frequency test signal to the ADC via a supply path. The ADC is configured to generate digital output data based on the radio frequency test signal. The semiconductor chip further comprises a reference data generation circuit configured to generate digital reference data. Additionally, the semiconductor chip comprises a comparator circuit configured to compare the digital output data to the digital reference in order to determine error data. |
