Comparison of Clock Jitter Measurement Methods Using ADC Sampling

The basic principles of clock jitter measurement using ADC sampling are studied in the paper. After reviewing the published theories of jitter measurement methods using ADC sampling, which are the method based on correlation and the method based on SNR; a new method based on "parameter estimating" is presented, which measures clock jitter through sine signal four parameter estimating. MATLAB simulations were performed to compare these methods. Simulation result shows that compared with others, "parameter estimating" method has its advantage. In general, measuring clock jitter and distribution using ADC has the advantages of simple measurement equipment, convenient measurement process, short measurement time, and high measurement precision, etc.
