ABSTRACT:
For determining a jitter value for a digital data signal, a jitter histogram determined for the digital data signal is substantially approximated using n normal distribution functions. The two outermost normal distribution functions are determine, and the jitter value is derived from a distance between the mean values of the two outmost distribution functions.
