The Easy Steps to Calculate Sampling Clock Jitter for Isolated, Precision High Speed DAQs

By

Many data acquisition (DAQ) applications require an isolated DAQ signal chain path for robustness, safety, high common-mode voltage, or to eliminate ground loops that can introduce an error into a measurement. ADI’s precision, high-speed technology enables system designers to achieve high AC and DC accuracy with the same design, without having to trade off DC accuracy for higher sampling rates.
