Exactly.
It's very instructive to see the traces separate appart as result of
deterministic jitter, or just see the soft edges from the random jitter.
I forgot to mention, you typically view the rising transition one cycle
off. For some scopes one need to feed the trigger separately and what I
do is use a powersplitter hooked straight onto the trigger input, and
then use a coax to compensate for the trigger delay + some offset. It's
the difference in delay between trigger input and sampling input which
needs to be sufficiently high.
This way I can view the trigger point completely, and I can also observe
the 1 cycle jitter effect.
Cheers,
Magnus
