Phase Coherence: Terminology
应用文章
This application note defines common terms used when referring to phase coherent signals.
When talking about signals and phase coherence, the vocabulary is sometimes used interchangeably, although each term has a very specific meaning. In this application note, we give illustrated definitions of the following terms: phase continuity, phase coherence, phase coherent switching, phase memory, and phase matched outputs. This should help the reader better understand the features and capabilities of the multi-channel Keysight G2 Compact Analog Signal Generator (AP5012A).
