David,

There is more to it than RMS jitter.

In TD simulations you can include the non-linear DFE
algorithms, for example, which is simply omitted in
Statistical analysis.  It's comparing apples and
oranges...

Thanks,

Arpad

Hi Experts,

When comparing the BER estimates of the Statistical and Time Domain operating 
modes of an EDA tool, would you expect:


1)      Statistical to estimate lower or higher BER than time domain?

2)      Expect the differences between the 2 modes to go to zero, as the 
difference between their estimates of RMS jitter goes to zero? (Said another 
way, perhaps: are BER extrapolation errors mainly due to errors in RMS jitter 
estimation?)

Thanks!
