Zusammenfassung:	A method for determining a trigger level for a periodic analog signal in a digital signal processing system shall be provided that reduces output jitter as much as possible and avoids false trigger events. To this end, the method comprises the steps of: - measuring (1) the minimum and maximum values of the signal in a predetermined time, - defining (4) a plurality of potential trigger values between the minimum and maximum values, - assigning (5) to the respective potential trigger value a jitter value characteristic for the jitter created by processing the signal with the potential trigger value, and - determining (6) the optimal trigger level based on the lowest jitter value.
