Abstract

Examples are disclosed that relate to detection of single event effects on an analog-to-digital converter. In one example, an electronic device includes an analog-to-digital converter and an event detection engine co-located on the same integrated circuit. The analog-to-digital converter is configured to receive an analog signal and output a set of digital signals representative of the analog signal. The event detection engine is configured to receive the set of digital signals from the analog-to-digital converter, and for each digital signal of the set of digital signals, compare a magnitude of the digital signal with a threshold, and output an error signal indicating a single-event error of the analog-to-digital converter based at least on the magnitude of the digital signal exceeding the threshold.
