Jitter
A term used to describe timing errors found in a digital signal. A perfect digital signal would go from ‘0’ to ‘1’
taking no time to do so. In reality, however, there is a very small time lag – this leads to impurities in the
digital signal that can cause various problems. Jitter can never be completely eliminated, as it is impossible
for any event to take no time, but can be reduced and minimised using various methods.
Jumper link
A small shorting link used to short two parts of a circuit together. Linn have 2 different types: one is a very
small jumper that is actually a small socket – it is fitted to protruding pins of a connector on a circuit board to
short them together. These are used in many many applications e.g. to configure user settings on a Majik
etc.
The other type is a ‘U’ shaped metal link that is used to short the pre-out to power-in sockets at the rear of
the Majik.
