Previous articles in Planet Analog make mention of the “aliasing effect.” Most EEs agree in the importance of the aliasing effect as a noise source and take for granted that anti-aliasing filters are ...

Anti-aliasing smooths the raw and haggard edges on digital type and images on computer and handheld displays, wireless phones, printers, even digital cameras. Aliasing – jagged or stair-stepped edges ...

Suppose you take a few measurements of a time-varying signal. Let’s say for concreteness that you have a microcontroller that reads some voltage 100 times per second. Collecting a bunch of data points ...

Sampling a signal causes the original signal spectrum (blue) to create sum (purple) and difference (red) frequencies around the sampling frequency, fS. When the difference signals fall into the ...

DSOs (digital oscilloscopes) offer a great many advantages over their analog equivalents but as they say, “There’s no such thing as a free lunch.” Digital scopes sample, digitize, and store waveforms ...
