Stress Testing Your Device with Simulated Waveforms
白皮書
Digital components and circuits must be able to withstand a certain amount of noise and jitter in clock and data signals to ensure the reliable operation of your device. If they do not, the result could be communication errors or system failures
Noise, jitter, cross talk, and reflections can cause signal distortions. Transient signal spikes can appear to be valid clocks, or the receiving system might misinterpret data. Such effects cause system failures. The design must minimize distortions to ensure accurate and reliable operation. Therefore, engineers need to stress their devices with these kinds of distortions during design, validation, and production.
