For the most part, the mechanisms of the natural world around us, including sound, operate in the analog domain. And so the transducers used to convert sound into electrical signals (microphones) and ...

Part 1 of this article series discussed the theoretical benefits of high-resolution audio’s large sample sizes and the degree to which the limitations of real-life equipment, recording studios, and ...

We're living the audiophile dream! Our phones can hold a year's worth of music and stream more songs than anyone could listen to in a lifetime. But none of that would be possible without the efforts ...

Do you keep hearing people talk about sampling rate in music? But aren’t certain what that actually is?? Well, friend, you’ve come to the right place. On a fundamental level, sampling rate is a result ...

Bad Fast Fourier Transfer (FFT) data captures can cause you to misunderstand the true performance of your analog-to-digital converter (ADC). Some engineers like to coherently sample and capture data ...

Coherent interleaved sampling is a new technique that can acquire data faster with more data points than sequential sampling. Engineers who need to characterize semiconductor devices, high-speed ...

One of the fundamental processes involving digital signals is sampling. When sampling video and audio, the question inevitably comes up as to what is optimum sampling. Just how much resolution do we ...
