RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ROOT-MEAN-SQUARE AND PEAK-TO-PEAK JITTER MEASUREMENTS

摘要

The statistical relationship between peak-to-peak and root-mean-square (RMS) measurements of random and deterministic jitter is discussed. An analytic expression relating the two quantities is derived for normally distributed random jitter. This work is applicable to a production test of electronic or optical components that uses sampling oscilloscopes for jitter characterization.
