DESCRIPTION
The ASNT9001_JI advanced jitter generation and insertion module can be used for test
applications, design verification and R&D environments. It supports controlled jitter
insertion into test clock signal up to 29GHz (Fig.2). The unit consists of two independently
selectable jitter sources (Fig. 3 and 4) and allow for an external jitter source (Fig.5)
interconnect. The module is available as a stand-alone bench type instrument and a boardlevel product suitable for installation into customer’s test equipment. The module requires
single +12VDC power supply source and fully controlled via USB interface by advanced
GUI provided with the module.
