Obtain phase spectrum from frequency/phase modulated signal
I have a homodyne rf setup in which I measure spectra by stepping frequency by frequency. The phase reference resets every time I change the signal frequency, so I can only measure the amplitude, but ...

Strange comb spectrum found during EMI precompliance
During near field testing I encountered this thing I've never seen neither on the wild nor on the book. The board has an STM32F107 with an 8MHz crystal and no ferrites or choke whatsoever (I'm ...

On the understanding of signals from an IR detector coupled to a lock in amplifier
I have a CW laser which is modulated by an optical chopper rotating at 1kHz. The modulated CW beam struck a sample holder and the absorption signal is recorder via an Infrared Associates MCT detector. ...

Op-amp chopping principle in frequency domain to reduce offset voltage
I am trying to understang the chopping principle used in op-amps with help of this document (page 19 - 20.) I understand that switch S1 (aka modulator M1) causes modulation with 1/2 duty cycle and it ...

Why do we take 50 ohm resistance value for unit conversion in Spectrum View in the oscilloscopes?
While we change the unit in Spectrum View, why is it explicitly mentioned 50 ohm? Why don't we take the resistance value of 1 Mohm into account as well? Though we do have 1 Mohm as one of the ...

Measuring signal with of nanosecond pulse width with a spectrum analyser?
I'm looking to measure the signal width of electronic signals (device under test, DUT). The problem is that these signals have a quite short pulse width which would require me to use a GHz ...
