The Role of Jitter in Timing Signals
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Timing signal jitter can have a profound impact on a wide variety of applications from analog radio frequency (RF) or audio-to-digital communications. While information in a communications system, for example, is extracted from serial data streams by sampling the data signal at specific points, the presence of small quantities of jitter can alter the edge positions enough to lead to data errors and high bit-error rates. Complicating the measurement of jitter is the way it is specified. Generally, timing signal jitter is specified in different ways from one application environment to another. For example, in digital data path synchronization applications, jitter is specified in the time domain as period or cycle-to-cycle jitter. In data communications applications, jitter is specified in the frequency domain as phase noise or “root mean square” (RMS) jitter.

A Low Jitter Vco and Frequency Divider for Frequency Synthesizer Applications
Timing information in the form of clock or oscillator signals play a critical role in most modern applications. The timing jitter or uncertainty in the timing information presents a serious limitation in the achievable system performance. For instance, timing errors can degrade the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of an A/D converter, limit the speed of a digital I/O interface or the bit error rate ...

The influence of timing jitter on quadrature charge sampling for a direct conversion receiver has been evaluated. In contrast to voltage sampling, the charge sampling mixer integrates the signal current instead of tracking the signal voltage. The charge sampling mixer has been applied to RF direct sampling in wireless receivers. The influence of timing jitter on charge sampling has been analyse...

We derive the power spectral density of timehopping (TH) spread-spectrum signals in the presence of random timing jitter, which is characterized typically by a discrete-time stationary process (independent of the TH sequences). Detailed descriptions of different TH schemes, employing a random TH sequence, is given and spectral analysis of such TH signals in the presence of uniform timing jitter...

متن کاملA Survey of Timing Jitter Measurement
The purpose of this paper is to provide robust experimental validations of timing jitter measurements and to derive some applications in the field of Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) characterisation. The timing jitter measurements are obtained by use of a recently proposed method, which is based on the use of two ADCs driven by the same input and clock signals.
