Such parameters include frequency, phase, duty cycle and channel-to-channel skew. Especially in applications in which testing time for multiple channels is a significant factor, efficient parallelization of measurements is crucial, often coming with significant extra cost. We present a technique for characterization of clock signal parameters using off-the-shelf (FPGA) evaluation hardware. Two methods for both static measurements (steady-state behaviour) as well as dynamic measurements are presented. For the two measurement methods proposed, case studies are presented and their performance discussed.en1748-0221Journal of Instrumentation20203Digital electronic circuitsDigital signal processing (DSP)Radiation-hard electronicsTiming detectorsMethods for clock signal characterization using FPGA resourcesJournal Article10.1088/1748-0221/15/03/P03012Other
