As clock speeds in communications systems push into the GHz range, phase noise and jitter — always key issues in analog designs — are becoming increasingly critical to the performance of digital chips ...

Jitter is a lesser-known networking issue that I can guarantee that most of you have experienced, probably recently. It's most apparent in any type of real-time communications, like video calls, VoIP ...

Jitter is one of the most widely used terms amongst engineers who design digital data links. Whether you design a new board or validate an old board, you'll run have to confront jitter and its ...

Jitter is the unwanted variations of a binary signal's leading and trailing edges. It occurs as the signal is processed or transmitted from one point to another. Most jitter is caused by noise picked ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. The terms noise and jitter can mistakenly be confused, even more so as data rates and signal amplitudes have changed ...

This white paper is aimed at system architects and physical implementation leaders working on the design of SoCs. It can be confusing to understand the impact of different jitter sources and how to ...

Jitter can seriously degrade system operation but, as Lee Morgan explains, characterising and troubleshooting jitter on embedded systems has become a lot easier. Clocks are the heartbeats of embedded ...
