Abstract
Bounded uncorrelated jitter (BUJ), a subcomponent of total jitter, is commonly caused by crosstalk coupling from adjacent interconnects on printed circuit boards (PCB). However, the characteristics of BUJ are still not well understood. Neither a mathematical model of jitter, nor an algorithm to generate histograms for BUJ has been developed to this date. Such a model and algorithm would empower designers to predict BUJ to achieve total jitter budget without lengthy simulations and measurements. In this paper, we first review the characteristics of a crosstalk pulse induced by an aggressor signal on a quiet trace. Then, by applying the superposition principle, a jitter model to calculate the time difference between the distortion-free and the distorted edge crossings of the victim signal was developed. This model is also extended to calculate the worst case timing difference, BUJ/sub p-p/. In addition, an algorithm to generate the histogram distribution of BUJ is also developed. The developed algorithm has fast execution times of 10-20 s, compared to simulation and measurement times of 10-30 min.

An Accurate Jitter Estimation Technique for Efficient High Speed I/O Testing

TL;DR: This paper describes a technique for estimating total jitter that, along with a loopback-based margining test, can be applied to test high speed serial interfaces and shows that only a very small number of measurement points is needed for accurate estimation.

Crosstalk Effects Caused by Single Event Hits in Deep Sub-Micron CMOS Technologies

TL;DR: Simulation results obtained substantiate that the effects of Single Event (SE) crosstalk increase as devices scale down, as the amount of charge deposited to cause an upset increases, and as the interconnect length increases.
