Signal integrity is the art of getting a signal from point A to point B with minimum distortion to that signal. The recent attention on this subject stems from the necessity to build systems with ever ...

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 ...

In the case of a clock signal, these events can be adjacent positive-going edges. By using counters or pattern triggering, the same bit in a complex pattern can be repeatedly measured and the values ...

High-performance computing (HPC) applications require IC designs with maximum performance. However, as process technology advances, achieving high performance has become increasingly challenging.

At a logical level, synchronous designs are very simple and the clock just happens. But the clocking network is possibly the most complex in a chip, and it’s fraught with the most problems at the ...

The AD9548 clock generator/synthesizer is the first clock IC that lets designers use the standard, free 1-pulse/s signal of GPS satellites to generate and synchronize clock signals for communications ...
