Abstract
A system for testing an overall system employing an integrated circuit with a modulator thereon is disclosed. The system for testing includes structure for causing the modulator to continually transmit data and structure for causing the continually transmitted data to exhibit extreme frequency deviation. In both instances the structure may be a single register. This register may also include a set of bits that may be set to select a continuous or an alternating pattern or, stated another way, a maximum or a minimum peak frequency deviation.
