If we are to believe the above paper,then those guys who claim to hear pS jitter are wrong. Likely they can also here is a fuse is is place in the holder "backwards". So by the above, no now can hear 250 nS of jitter. I really doubt any decent system other then the most low-cost consumer level junk has jitter at the 250 nS level. Even a TTL "can oscillator" is better than that. A TTL can that is marked "4.096 MHz" costs about $2 and will make a square wave with a period of very close to 250 nS. Then they divide this down to the sample rate of 96KHz. In order to see a 250 nS jitter in the 96K signal the TTL can would have to "skip a beat". 250 nS is is a huge error and you don't get there with digital noise Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
