Hi, I'm developing an A/D converter in the LTspice program. However, the circuit presented problems and I only have the transfer curve.
I need to perform performance tests, find the INL and DNL error, how to do it in matlab?
Does anyone know how to assemble the function below from the vectors I have for the curve?
s = inldnl(analog,digital,range,type)
s = inldnl(___,Name,Value)

I would use a PWL source with the steps described in a file. From the LTspice HELP file

V. Voltage Source ​

Syntax: Vxxx n+ n- PWL(t1 v1 t2 v2 t3 v3...)​

​

Arbitrary Piece-wise linear voltage source.​

​

For times before t1, the voltage is v1. For times between t1 and t2, the voltage varies linearly between v1 and v2. There can be any number of time, voltage points given. For times after the last time, the voltage is the last voltage.​

​

Syntax: Vxxx n+ n- wavefile=<filename> [chan=<nnn>]​

Once you get the basic sequence you can use the REPEAT..FOREVER construct. See PWL sources in the following article:

hi saori,
I don't use Matlab, perhaps this PDF maybe of help.

Your graph shows voltage vs time.
For D/A and A/D converters you want to show how counts relate to voltage.

For DNL, you want to measure the voltage step at every digital count increment and analyze how that deviates from the theoretical value of a DAC. For an A/D you want to do the reverse, i.e. what is range on input voltages that fit into the same bin (number).

For INL, you want to analyze how the voltage deviates from a straight line function across the full range.
