Overview

This course introduces the three classes of clocks: clock generators, jitter cleaners, and network synchronizers. It begins with the definition of a clock, the key features of each class, how they differ from each other, and what to consider when choosing the best clock for your system. The course provides example timing tree diagrams for the clock classes, as well as common applications for each. Finally, the course summarizes the highlighted features of and considerations for each clock class.
