Abstract
In this note, we examine coherent sampling—a technique generally used to characterize the performance of analog to digital converters (ADCs) [1]–[4]. Coherent sampling causes the spectrum of a pure tone to be as simple as possible, and when used properly, it has additional advantages, which we discuss.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Instrumentation & Measurement Magazine is a bimonthly publication. It publishes in February, April, June, August, October, and December of each year. The magazine covers a wide variety of topics in instrumentation, measurement, and systems that measure or instrument equipment or other systems. The magazine has the goal of providing readable introductions and overviews of technology in instrumentation and measurement to a wide engineering audience. It does this through articles, tutorials, columns, and departments. Its goal is to cross disciplines to encourage further research and development in instrumentation and measurement.
