Integrity of ADC can be checked monitoring DAC output using ADC. DAC in CMPSS can be configured using software to provide a set of predetermined voltage levels. These voltage levels can be measured by the ADC and results thus obtained can be cross checked against the expected value to ensure proper functioning of ADC. This technique can be applied during run time as well to ensure that proper voltage levels are being driven from CMPSS DAC.
For more information on the CMPSS DAC channels that can be sampled by ADC without external board level connections, see the device-specific data sheet or technical reference manual. ADCDACLOOPBACK register n CMPSS module needs to be configured to enable this mode. To avoid common cause failures, it is recommended to keep the references voltages of the ADC and DAC different while performing the test. In addition, the input signal to ADC should not be driven by any other sources while the test is being performed.
