Abstract
A system and method for determining the linearity of a device-under-test combine a first periodic signal and a second periodic signal to produce a combined signal, wherein the second periodic signal has at least one of a phase difference and a frequency difference with respect to the first periodic signal, and applying the combined signal to an input of the device-under-test. The linearity of the device-under-test is determined from an output signal of the device-under-test based on the at least one of the phase difference and frequency difference between the first periodic signal and the second periodic signal.
