Description:
The module's selt-test performs the E1437A diagnostic tests. If the results are
within specified limits, the module returns 0. If the results exceed the secified limits,
the module returns 1 and an error message is placed in the error queue. The length
of the self-test is approximately as follows:
The query accesses the error queue.
The following tests are performed:
• Digital: rails the front end to a full scale value then turns on zooming, filtering, and
the final decimation to quickly verify those operations.
• Noise: does a quick baseband measurement with the input signal disconnected,
and verifies that the front-end noise is within specification.
• Bump: Verifies some front-end levels associated with the analog-to-digital
converter.
• Memory: fills the entire DRAM then verifies that all the data is correct.
• Analog: verifies that autozero adjust is working and that the input is triggering.
