That takes the incoming clock signal and filters it to produce a clock signal with less jitter or with a different jitter spectrum.
True re-clocking would involve storing the incoming data in a memory buffer, and then clocking the data out with a locally generated clock that isn't based on or otherwise influenced by the transport clock. If you do that, then there is no way for the jitter from the source to affect the timing of the data coming out of the buffer. You are in effect starting fresh, with only the jitter present in the local clock. That jitter can be very, very, very low if you take the care to do it right. -- John Stimson ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John Stimson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=218 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21415 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
