Jitter And Phase Noise

As data rate increases, effect of jitter becomes critical

with its budget tighter. Jitter is the deviation of a timing

event of a signal from its ideal position. Jitter is

complex and is composed of both random jitter (RJ) and

deterministic jitter (DJ) components.

Random Jitter (RJ) is theoretically unbounded and

Gaussian in distribution, while Deterministic Jitter (DJ)

is bounded and does not follow any predictable

distribution.

Q-Tech utilizes the EZJIT Plus jitter analysis software

with Noise reduction software that supports Agilent

Infinium real-time oscilloscope. Measure at its

maximum sampling rate 40Gs/s and memory depth, we

can separate the signal’s aggregate total jitter into

Random Jitter (RJ) and Deterministic Jitter (DJ).

Since Random Jitter is unbounded and Gaussian in

style, the Total Jitter is a function of Bit Error Rate

(BER).

TJ = RJ + DJ
