The DAC80516EVM has dedicated test points for measuring glitch on the OUT15 pin. Test point TP12 and capacitor C36 are isolated from the ground and power plane on the EVM. To best measure glitch, remove R31 to isolate the OUT15 pin from the rest of the EVM circuitry and populate C36 with the desired capacitive load. A probe can be placed across TP12 and TP13. Figure 3-5 shows a glitch measurement taken with the DAC80516EVM. In this example, C36 was populated with a 10pF capacitor and the glitch was captured on the rising edge between codes 0x7FFF to 0x8000.
