Abstract
A calibration system includes a jitter-capturing analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a calibration value generating circuit and a first calculation circuit. The jitter-capturing ADC is configured to sample a to-be-sampled clock signal according to an operating clock signal to generate a first quantized output. The calibration value generating circuit is configured to receive the first quantized output and a second quantized output of a to-be-calibrated ADC to generate a calibration value. The operating clock signal is for driving the to-be-calibrated ADC to sample, and the calibration value is related to a phase noise of the operating clock signal. The first calculation circuit is coupled with the calibration value generating circuit, and configured to subtract the calibration value from the second quantized output to generate a third quantized output.
