Jitter remains one of the most important specifications when measuring the goodness of a device. Compliance packages specify random jitter, deterministic jitter, time interval error, and total jitter.

Digitizing high-speed signals to a high resolution requires careful selection of a clock that will not compromise the sampling performance of the analog-to-digital converter (ADC). In this article, we ...

High-speed communications require system designers to optimize clocking performance while adhering to both performance and cost-budget requirements. When selecting an optimal clock, the developer must ...

Volumes have been written about jitter, an indication of the complexity associated with timing uncertainty. Actually, timing errors are easy to measure. It is in the assignment of blame that the ...
