Hi All,
I am measuring 125MHZ,1.2ns rise time clock with Tek's scope.

When i measure clock with 5G Bandwidth i see non monotonic edges,when i
measure the same clock with 500MHZ and 1GHZ,clock was clean.

Here is the formula i use whenever assess clock signals,

Fknee=0.5/rise=0.5/1.2ns=416MHZ

Required bandwidth for maximum accuracy=1.9*419=800MHZ.

Since required bandwidth is 800MHZ ,can i consider waveform with 1G as
precise waveform.?

Why non-monotonic appears at high BW?
