A review of five different detection modes (sample, peak, negative peak, normal, and average) and which modes are better suited for specific signal types is covered.
About this course
Modern analyzers use digital displays, which means that analysis and decisions are made for each display data point. No matter how many data points are used across the display, each point must represent what has occurred over some frequency range and time interval. The data collected is based on the type of detection chosen. A review of five different detection modes (sample, peak, negative peak, normal, and average) and which of the different modes are better suited for specific signal types is covered.
