INSTRUMENT FOR MEASURING THE PHASE JITTER OF ANALOG SIGNALS

An instrument measures directly the phase jitter of analog signals transmitted on a line by a device under test, even when clock information is not available and when operating circumstances do not permit the use of analog instruments. It uses a circuit which generates a square-wave clock signal wit...

Zusammenfassung:An instrument measures directly the phase jitter of analog signals transmitted on a line by a device under test, even when clock information is not available and when operating circumstances do not permit the use of analog instruments. It uses a circuit which generates a square-wave clock signal with the same phase and frequency characteristics as the signal to be measured, so that a phase comparison with a reference signal can be made. The error signal so obtained is filtered, measured and displayed.
