A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US12013435B2) discloses a calibration system that includes a waveform generator and a control circuit. The waveform generator generates a periodic waveform, which is then converted to digital values by an analog-to-digital converter in the control circuit. An electronic device in the control circuit utilizes these digital values to automatically verify the timing calibration and voltage level calibration of the control circuit within predetermined threshold tolerances. The system can use different types of periodic waveforms such as triangular or sine waves, and the electronic device may include a field-programmable gate array, a processor, and an input/output circuit.

Furthermore, the patent also covers an electronic device that includes an analog-to-digital converter and a processing circuit. Similar to the calibration system, the processing circuit uses digital values from the converter to automatically verify timing and voltage level calibrations within specified tolerances. The processing circuit may consist of a field-programmable gate array and a processor, along with an input/output circuit. Additionally, a calibration verification method is described in the patent, involving generating a periodic waveform, converting it to digital values, and automatically verifying timing and voltage level calibrations of an electronic device. The method includes determining the frequency of the inputted waveform, comparing it with a known frequency, and ensuring that voltage levels are within expected thresholds. This innovative system and method provide an efficient and automated way to calibrate electronic devices accurately.
