The Effects of Passive Probe Ground Leads
This article explains how the inductance of passive probe ground leads can dramatically reduce effective bandwidth, distort measurements, and introduce resonance and frequency-response errors.
Educational materials about measurements of clock and serial data jitter using oscilloscopes. Understand the full range of jitter measurements along with time, statistical, frequency and phase-noise views of jitter with jitter deconvolution and extrapolation for advanced high-speed serial data applications.
This tutorial explains a robust oscilloscope-based method for measuring clock jitter using period statistics, track and histogram analysis, and sample-rate verification techniques.
By correlating filtered power rail variations with clock period tracking, you can quantify and verify a clock’s jitter sensitivity to supply noise.
By injecting a controlled power rail perturbation and tracking clock period variation, you can quantify a clock’s sensitivity to supply noise.
