US Patent 11686773 Path loss compensation for comparator

A test system can receive a test signal from a device under test (DUI) via a first signal path. A comparator circuit can receive the test signal and, in response, generate an intermediate output signal based on a magnitude relationship between the test signal a comparator reference signal. A compensation circuit can generate a correction signal that is complementary to a portion of the received test signal, such as to correct for loading effects of the first signal path. The test system can include an output circuit configured to provide a corrected differential output signal that is based on a combination of the intermediate output signal and the correction signal.
