NaceurElOuni - I think I'm having trouble understanding your question. I'm not sure what you want to measure, or how you intend to measure it.
For starters, there isn't really a shared concept of 'time' between the FPGA and the analog components. The FPGA operates in terms of clocks... which don't exist on the analog front-end. I suppose you could try to measure it in real-world 'time', but figuring out how to do that would be incredibly hard, and then the instrumentation you would need to do it would be even harder (probably?). Are you asking about measuring the group delay of the analog components? If that's the case, the throwing everything into a simulator is your best bet. Anyway, sorry for the confused response. I don't think I'm understanding your question correctly.
