  2. Spectrum analyzer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectrum_analyzer

    A spectrum analyzer is also used to determine, by direct observation, the bandwidth of a digital or analog signal. A spectrum analyzer interface is a device that connects to a wireless receiver or a personal computer to allow visual detection and analysis of electromagnetic signals over a defined band of frequencies.

  3. Full width at half maximum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_width_at_half_maximum

    In a distribution, full width at half maximum (FWHM) is the difference between the two values of the independent variable at which the dependent variable is equal to half of its maximum value. In other words, it is the width of a spectrum curve measured between those points on the y -axis which are half the maximum amplitude.

  4. Cyclic voltammetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_voltammetry

    The difference between the two peak potentials (E p), ΔE p, is of particular interest. ΔE p = E pa - E pc > 0. This difference mainly results from the effects of analyte diffusion rates. In the ideal case of a reversible 1e- couple (i.e., Nernstian), ΔE p is 57 mV and the full-width half-max of the forward scan peak is 59 mV. Typical values ...

  5. Envelope detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Envelope_detector

    Between the circuit's input and output is a diode that performs half-wave rectification, allowing substantial current flow only when the input voltage is around a diode drop higher than the output terminal. The output is connected to a capacitor of value and resistor of value in parallel to ground. The capacitor is charged as the input voltage ...

  6. Ripple (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_(electrical)

    The characteristics and components of ripple depend on its source: there is single-phase half- and full-wave rectification, and three-phase half- and full-wave rectification. Rectification can be controlled (uses Silicon Controlled Rectifiers (SCRs)) or uncontrolled (uses diodes). There is in addition, active rectification which uses transistors.

  7. Electromyography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromyography

    [28] [29] This is the preferred method of rectification because it conserves all of the signal energy for analysis. Half-wave rectification discards the portion of the EMG signal that is below the baseline. In doing so, the average of the data is no longer zero therefore it can be used in statistical analyses.

  8. Rectifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer_Utilization_factor

    Full-wave rectifier, with vacuum tube having two anodes. A full-wave rectifier converts the whole of the input waveform to one of constant polarity (positive or negative) at its output. Mathematically, this corresponds to the absolute value function. Full-wave rectification converts both polarities of the input waveform to pulsating DC (direct ...

  9. Spectrophotometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectrophotometry

    Spectrophotometry is a tool that hinges on the quantitative analysis of molecules depending on how much light is absorbed by colored compounds. Important features of spectrophotometers are spectral bandwidth (the range of colors it can transmit through the test sample), the percentage of sample transmission, the logarithmic range of sample ...
