Jitter Analysis in Systems with Crosstalk

In many cases jitter can be analyzed independently of voltage noise, but not in the presence of crosstalk. Crosstalk is a source of bounded uncorrelated jitter that is notoriously difficult to identify and tends to confound jitter analysis algorithms. In this paper we introduce crosstalk as an example of a jitter source that doesn't fall conveniently under one of the standard jitter acronyms and presents a challenge that can be addressed by expanding from jitter analysis to thefull two dimensions of phase noise and amplitude noise.
