Damping Factor, ζ
Damping factor, ζ describes the compensation of the second or-
der PLL. A larger value of ζ corresponds to more damping and
less peaking in the jitter transfer function.
Acquisition Time
This is the transient time, measured in bit periods, required for
the AD807 to lock onto input data from its free-running state.
Symmetry—Recovered Clock Duty Cycle
Symmetry is calculated as (100 × on time)/period, where on
time equals the time that the clock signal is greater than the
midpoint between its “0” level and its “1” level.
Bit Error Rate vs. Signal-to-Noise Ratio
AD807 Bit Error Rate vs. Signal-to-Noise Ratio performance is
shown in Figure 11. Wideband amplitude noise is summed with
the input data signal as shown in Figure 4. Performance is
shown for input data levels of 5 mV and 10 mV.
