System and method for generating jitter analysis diagrams

Abstract

A system and method for generating various jitter analysis diagrams and customized jitter analysis reports. The method includes the steps of: (a) obtaining a signal file; (b) determining a type of the signal file; (c) loading customized jitter analysis parameters; (d) generating a graphic function according to the customized jitter analysis parameters; (e) obtaining serial signals from the signal file; (f) separating transient signals and non-transient signals from the serial signals; (g) rebuilding an ideal clock based on the serial signals by means of performing a minimum deviation algorithm (MDA); (h) calculating and analyzing jitters of the serial signals according to the ideal clock by means of performing the MDA; (i) generating a jitter analysis diagram according to the graphic function; and (j) generating a jitter analysis report according the jitter analysis results.
