The demand for more and more data requires faster and faster data transfer rates, where timing uncertainty (i.e., jitter) takes up a larger portion of a system's total time budget. To improve system performance, each new generation of technology must consider and evaluate the impact of jitter. 

This is a 3-part fundamentals course on jitter in clock and data signals that provides a broad overview of the jitter topic. Participants will learn the definitions of the different types of jitter, understand what type of jitter is important for their application, and how to measure jitter with an oscilloscope. Emphasis is placed on developing knowledge of jitter such as developing a common language, understanding jitter beyond definitions, visualizing relationships between different types of jitter, and understanding jitter requirements specifically for fast clock signals and serial data standards such as USB, PCIe, etc. 

Topics to be covered in this webinar (Part 1): 

• Jitter definition 
• Traditional Jitter Measurements 
• Modern Jitter Measurement Methods 
• Using the track function to visualize jitter 
• Statistical consideration of jitter 
• Examples of Jitter Measurements
