Abstract: A time error vector is determined using pairs of two closest points of input-referred noise data that straddle respective crossing times indicating when a clock signal representation crosses a threshold value, a slew rate of the clock signal representation, and the crossing times. A system filter is applied to the time error vector in the frequency domain. A first RMS value is determined indicating a jitter value present in the filtered time error vector. A raw clock signal time error vector of the clock signal under test is generated, the system filter is applied to the raw clock signal time error vector in the frequency domain, and a second RMS value indicating a jitter content of the filtered raw clock signal time error vector is determined. The second RMS value is corrected using the first RMS value to thereby generate a jitter measurement compensated for input-referred noise.
