[time-nuts] Modeling vs reality question re my TIC

Wouldn't those types of problems tend to make the result worse in some obvious way, instead of better than expected?  I'm getting an ADC swing from about .7V to about 2.4V; which corresponds to the usual diode sink at .7V and probably just blind luck with the 2.4V max being so close to the 2.5V VRef.


In the plot below, I zapped the DAC on my system to get a picture of the charge ramp.  The red dots are the TIC with the 10ns uncorrected jitter from a nav receiver.  The purple is a 30 second rolling average.  Am I right in thinking this is a typical RC charge ramp?  Not trying to be argumentative, I'm just trying hard to understand.
