High-side switching using P channel – I am using LTC4412 for power path switching. In the example, it shows use of P Channel with drain connected to Positive and Source to load. I understand that this would avoid reverse flow but shouldn’t the voltage input be connected to Source of MOSFET? Read more I am trying the following […]
Ultra-low-jitter clock generators for telecommunications infrastructure equipment
Texas Instruments (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) introduced a new family of clock generators that provides ultra-low jitter of 100 femtoseconds (fs) and flexible, unique pin control options. Compared to conventional reference clock solutions, the new clock generators’ jitter performance enables system designers to optimize system timing margins and bit error rate (BER) to reduce data transmission […]

Application relevance of clock jitter
Clock Jitter is commonly used to describe the performance requirements of oscillators and PLLs when driving high performance components like FPGAs, Microprocessors, and PHYs. But the plethora of clock jitter types, measurement methodologies, and corresponding specifications is broad and often leads to confusion. It is important to use the jitter type that is most appropriate […]
