Races, missed next-state values due to long paths, and metastability can result from corrupted clock signals. This post describes the challenges of clock network and clock jitter analysis in more ...

The advantage of a radio-controlled clock that receives the time signal from WWVB is that you never have to set it again. Whether it’s a little digital job on your desk, or some big analog wall clock ...

Clock and Data Recovery (CDR) circuits form a critical component in modern digital communication systems, where the accurate extraction of timing information from data streams is paramount. These ...

There are significantly different architectures for what are known as “atomic” clocks. Optically driven atomic clocks offer a new set of performance attributes. The optical atomic clocks use paired ...

Among many deliberations when designing with high-speed analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), the effect of the ADC’s sampling clock is paramount to meeting specific design requirements. There are ...

Editor's note: Signal Chain Basics is an ongoing and popular series; click here for a complete, linked list of all installments.) In Signal Chain Basics Part 56 we discussed the fundamental ...
