Editor's note: Signal Chain Basics is an ongoing and popular series; click here for a complete, linked list of all installments.) In Signal Chain Basics Part 56 we discussed the fundamental ...
With so many companies in Silicon Valley designing high-speed digital links, there's always a need to measure jitter, phase noise, Allen Deviation, and other parameters. Engineers who don't have the ...
With the continued quest for ever-higher performance, the unit interval (UI) for a data valid window continues to shrink. At a 1-Gbit/s rate, the UI is 1000 ps, shrinking to 200 ps at 5 Gbits/s and a ...
Signal sources can help predict serialiser and deserialiser jitter behaviour. Signal jitter is one of the more difficult compliance issues confronting serial device designers. With their high data ...
