Five tips to reduce measurement noise
21 August, 2008 by Charles Stiernberg* | Supplied by: National Instruments Aust Pty Ltd
Ensuring measurement accuracy often means going beyond reading raw specifications in a data sheet. Understanding an application in the context of its electrical environment is also important for securing success, particularly in a noisy or industrial setting. Ground loops, high common-mode voltages and electromagnetic radiation are all prevalent examples of noise that can adversely affect a signal.
