Abstract
Clock-rate adaptation circuits of network synchronizers work by controlling the output data rate by pulse stuffing. The technique of stuff threshold modulation (ST-Mod) is one method used to reduce the waiting time jitter produced by pulse stuffing. In this paper an expression for the filtered waiting time jitter in the presence of an ST-Mod sequence is present and the selection of a suitable ST-Mod dither sequence for a given set of data transmission conditions is investigated, It is shown that by using either a random ST-Mod sequence or a modified-wave ST-Mod sequence, it is possible to obtain minimal filtered jitter for given synchronizer-desynchronizer characteristics.
