Abstract :
The jitter and voltage margin of a source synchronous memory bus has been analyzed under various physical and operational conditions. Using sensitivity functions derived through linearly independent experiments, the statistical distribution of the performance has been computed. The sensitivity functions have also been utilized as a diagnosis tool to estimate the design parameters required to meet the performance specifications.
