Hi The dividing line between wander and jitter is a “legal" one rather than a physics one. It’s a breakpoint in a spec where the treatment of the noise changes from “do this” to “do that”. In most cases you pass wander and you attenuate jitter. Different specs put the line at different points b

Hi Dave and thanks for the quick answer! My thesis is about a phase noise measurement device I developed, which primary use is to measure phase noise/jitter of audioband DACs. I probably won't be focussing on jitter too much but would like to know if there even is one accepted standard definitio
