Closely related to a scope’s real-time bandwidth is its maximum specified sample rate. “Real-time” simply means that the scope can capture and display signals commensurate with the scope’s specified ...

The concept behind digitizing sound. Working at Bell Labs, Harry Nyquist discovered that it was not necessary to capture the entire analog waveform, and samples of the wave could be taken at various ...

Nyquist pulse generation underpins modern high-speed optical communications by producing sinc-shaped waveforms that occupy the minimum spectral bandwidth for a given data rate. These pulses, ...
