Modeling Timing Jitter Effects in Digital-to-Analog Converters

摘要: Digital-to-analog converters (DACs) whose time base is affected by deterministic jitter are dealt with. A new model particularly proposed, which capable of describing how the desired spectral features analog waveform at output a DAC distorted presence sinusoidal timing jitter. In addition to detailed description model, very practical and usable relations given make its use straightforward. Efficacy reliability assessed through several experiments on an actual DAC. Jitter effects predicted compared with those measured signals. Special attention paid signals, represent key stimulus in variety application fields. Some tests also conducted more complex such as digitally modulated signals peculiar modern communication systems.
