Jitter is defined as the measurement variation of the
crossing points (V
TX-DIFFp-p = 0V) in relation to a recovered
TX UI. A recovered TX UI is calculated over 3500
consecutive unit intervals of sample data. Jitter is measured
using all edges of the 250 consecutive UI in the center of
the 3500 UI used for calculating the TX UI. See Notes
