Abstract

See full text

A method for testing an analog-to-digital converter unit, which is equipped to convert an analog input signal into a digital output signal with the aid of delta-sigma modulation. The method includes: generating an analog input signal; applying a predefined interference signal to the analog input signal and storing the resulting digital output signal as test result; determining that a fault is present if a transfer function of the analog-to-digital converter unit, which is ascertained from the test result and the input signal, has a deviation from a predefined target transfer function that is greater than a predefined reference value, a fault signal being output if a fault is determined.
