Figure 5 Zoomed picture of the jitter rejection filter.
Lock range
There are some devices on the market that feature jitter
rejection to some extent but most of them uses a common
WHFKQRORJ\9&;2W\SHRIRVFLOODWRULQWKH3//7KLV
technology is limited in the terms of lock range. This
means that the jitter rejection only can be done at the
known frequencies e.g. 96 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 48 kHz +/- a
few hundred PPM. This is typically enough given the fact
that most clock oscillators have a precision of less than +/-
50ppm but if you want to use other sample rates (e.g. vary
speed or the broadcast related 44.056 kHz) you will have
to do without the jitter rejection.
System 6000 uses a special technology that makes it able
to lock to all sample rates from: 30 to 34 kHz, 42.5 to 45.6
kHz, 46.5 to 48.5 kHz, 85 to 91 kHz and 93 to 97 kHz. This
means that every signal at sample rates in these ranges
will be treated with the same jitter rejection filter. The
performance is not only good in a narrow range around
one or two sample rates.
Intrinsic jitter
The intrinsic sampling jitter on System 6000 has been
optimized through a long period of trimming in order to
make the perfect AD- and DA-conversion on the ADA24/96
card. This is also why the intrinsic interface jitter is as low
