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 ...

Imagine you're under pressure to move a hypothetical multi-gigabit-per-second communications design to production. One problem remains elusive—the high-speed communication between chips suffers ...

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 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 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 ...

In digital, analog, and RF communications systems, jitter plays a large role in the degradation of signal integrity. This can include a reduced signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) or effective number of bits ...

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 ...

Use Jitter to make a quick motion graphic you can display on social channels, in email, or on your site. This article is republished with permission from Wonder Tools, a newsletter that helps you ...
