Many of today's high-speed serial designs use embedded clocks to avoid routing and timing issues involved with separate data and clock signals and to free up precious real estate on board designs.

As a species, we are obsessed about time. Our technological exploits rely on an increasingly exact knowledge of time. For example, some communications systems require frequency uncertainty 10-11 ...

Analysis: Measuring time to the 19th decimal place, as nuclear clocks could do, would allow scientists to study very fast processes Time is vital to the functioning of our everyday lives, from the ...

The average textbook definition of modulation reads: modulation is a process in which the frequency, phase or amplitude of a carrier wave varies in step with the instantaneous value of the modulating ...

In my previous design idea, a design for a simple GPS disciplined oscillator (GPSDO) 10 MHz reference was presented. A note at the end of that article describes the realization that a frequency ...

How many times have you poked around a circuit with a digital multimeter (DMM), read an AC voltage value, then gone on your merry way? Ever wonder if your meter is giving you peak value, average value ...

If you think about dielectric properties at all, it is probably in the context of school physics experiments on charge storage, or perhaps the way in which the choice of dielectric materials ...
