All periodic signals can be described in terms of amplitude and phase. We all learned that in basic circuit theory. You surely recall having to calculate signal’s phase change when it passed through a ...
Signal integrity is the primary measure of signal quality. Its importance increases with higher signal speed, oscilloscope bandwidth, the need to view small signals, or the need to see small changes ...
Get to really know the fundamentals behind your test equipment. Not only do you reap the most out of your scopes, etc. as well as avoid debugging traps—it can also facilitate a “spec hack.” Everyone ...
My colleagues and I are not conscious of any act of impropriety in this matter, but the comments above give a misrepresentation of the position, to which I must reply briefly. It was shown more than ...
