In electronics and telecommunications, jitter is the deviation from true periodicity of a presumably periodic signal, often in relation to a reference clock signal. In clock recovery applications it is called timing jitter. [1] Jitter is a significant, and usually undesired, factor in the design of almost all communications links.
Data-dependent jitter (DDJ) is a specific class of timing jitter. In particular, it is a form of deterministic jitter which is correlated with the sequence of bits in the data stream. It is also a form of ISI .
Because they have highly deterministic timing behavior, TT systems have been used for many years to develop safety-critical aerospace and related systems. [2]An early text that sets forth the principles of time triggered architecture, communications, and sparse time approaches is Real-Time Systems: Design Principles for Distributed Embedded Applications in 1997.
Statistics - The Jitterlyzer’s measurement routines uncover total jitter and BER directly (without requiring mathematical extrapolation). This routine for random jitter (RJ) and deterministic jitter (DJ) separation is included for completeness. Also a number is provided for RJ and DJ on real-life traffic.
This of course means that the clock skew between two points varies from cycle to cycle, which is a complexity that is rarely mentioned. Many other authors use the term clock skew only for the spatial variation of clock times, and use the term clock jitter to represent the rest of the total clock timing uncertainty. This of course means that the ...
For example, UI is used to measure timing jitter in serial communications or in on-chip clock distributions. This measurement unit is extensively used in jitter literature. Examples can be found in various ITU-T Recommendations, [1] or in the tutorial from Ransom Stephens. [2]
Clock signal and legend. In electronics and especially synchronous digital circuits, a clock signal (historically also known as logic beat) [1] is an electronic logic signal (voltage or current) which oscillates between a high and a low state at a constant frequency and is used like a metronome to synchronize actions of digital circuits.
Reference clock jitter translates directly to the output, but this jitter is a smaller percentage of the output period (by the ratio above). Since the maximum output frequency is limited to f c l k / 2 {\displaystyle f_{clk}/2} , the output phase noise at close-in offsets is always at least 6 dB below the reference clock phase noise.
