[MPC5775E] Non linear eQADC conversion result issue

Hi,

I am conducting a simple Analog-to-Digital conversion test on the MPC5775E and have observed nonlinear behavior in the eQADC conversion results.

Test Description:

  • Pins Tested: AN25 and AN32
  • Sampling: eQADC0 and eQADC1 sampling at 30 kHz
  • Input Signal: A 0.5 V to 4.5 V sawtooth waveform at 0.1 Hz generated using a signal generator
  • Setup: AN25 and AN32 are directly connected to the signal generator

Observations:

The conversion results are plotted in the attached graph, alongside an approximation line for reference. The data shows a clear nonlinear deviation from the expected values.

  • The maximum conversion error is approximately 70 (in a 14-bit range) when compared to the approximation line, as shown in the second figure.
  • This nonlinear behavior persists regardless of using the calibration feature. Notably, the sampled voltages at 25% and 75% of the input signal range appear accurate.

Question:

Could this nonlinear behavior be attributed to a specific hardware or software configuration? Are there any known limitations or additional settings required to address this issue?

 

Thank you,

It is interesting but it does not fit to eQADC validation results.

Could you specify used calibration routines? I could point out following example code:
