Audiophiles spend a lot of time and effort worrying about audio specs like Total Harmonic Distortion (THD). Makes sense, because THD affects the quality of audio reproduction. However, THD can also ...

The power quality industry has developed certain index values that help us assess the quality of service as it relates to distortion caused by the presence of harmonics. These values, or harmonic ...

Understanding the causes, similarities, and differences between current and voltage distortion will help you pinpoint most power quality problems. When a writer or speaker mentions harmonic distortion ...

A detailed analysis of the total harmonic distortion for a nonisolated boost topology with average current-mode control using the UC1854A and the UCC3817. IAC = Current reference. Ideally, IAC is a ...

If you’re into mechanical devices or Fourier series (or both!), you’ve got some serious YouTubing to do. In Synthesis, [The Engineer Guy] explains how the machine creates an arbitrary waveform from ...

Coming to grips with the semantics and vocabulary that apply to “distortion” takes a little discipline, but it isn’t all that intimidating. All you need is a little patience to go over the relevant ...
