Abstract :
This paper deals with the characterization of the timing resolution of the time-resolved photoelectric laser stimulation (TRLS) technique using ultra short pulses. A new synchronization system is presented and the timing resolution is measured. The TRLS technique is applied to visualize the signal propagation in an 860MHz ring oscillator.
