Aliasing is thankfully becoming a less frequent problem due to improved instrument designs. Users should still be aware of it to prevent time- and money-costly errors. Aliasing is an ever-present ...

In An Approximation to the Aliasing Effect, Part 1: The Origin I revisited some basic concepts about the aliasing effect, though I did it from a more visual than theoretical perspective. This second ...

Suppose you take a few measurements of a time-varying signal. Let’s say for concreteness that you have a microcontroller that reads some voltage 100 times per second. Collecting a bunch of data points ...

A look at the Nyquist sampling theorem. How to deal with aliasing by attenuating signals using low-pass filters (i.e., an antialiasing filter, or AAF). AAF requirements for different ADCs. A deep dive ...

Sampling a signal causes the original signal spectrum (blue) to create sum (purple) and difference (red) frequencies around the sampling frequency, fS. When the difference signals fall into the ...
