The author is a broadcast contract engineer who has a unique way of measuring the carrier frequency of the AM stations in his care. Making off-air frequency measurements of AM broadcast stations can ...

The module’s operation consists of reading data of a 24-bit timer/counter and transferring it to three registers called TMR, CPR, and PR. The SMT can perform a variety of measurements such as Gated ...

Frequency response is defined as: A measure of the effectiveness with which a circuit, device, or system transmits the different frequencies applied to it. It is a phasor whose magnitude is the ratio ...

An improvement to a Nobel Prize-winning technology called a frequency comb enables it to measure light pulse arrival times with greater sensitivity than was previously possible -- potentially ...

In the process of debugging and validating both digital and RF designs, the oscilloscope Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) function and a variety of other math functions can prove valuable to designers ...

Let’s start our expla nations of loudspeaker measurement graphs with the most basic graph of a speaker’s behavior: the frequency response. Sometimes this is referred to as the amplitude response as ...

The author is technical publications manager and a senior technical writer at Audio Precision in Beaverton, Ore. When reduced to its basics, the process of audio test and measurement is concerned with ...

In the last few weeks I've been working on a slightly more formal version of this post on black-body radiation for use in something else. One of the tricky things in writing about the development of ...
