Hi The highest sensitivity approach to jitter measurement is to look at phase noise with a phase noise test set. You don’t mention jitter bandwidth or what sort of cleanup you have after the DDS. That will all impact the degree to which phase noise is a useful indicator. Likely the quickest

I just posted this on the HP Equipment forum. Someone reading it there suggested I contact timenuts because what I want to do is effectively an accurate time stability measurement. I am attempting to look at the phase jitter between two synchronized DDS rf sources, one at 3 Ghz and one at 750
