This blog post provides the answers to the questions asked by the audience during the webinar "Lock-in Amplifier or Boxcar Averager? Choosing the Right Measurement Tool for Periodic Signals”, and points to other helpful resources.
Boxcar averagers (sometimes also known with the name of “gated integrators”) are instruments used to measure signals stemming from low-duty-cycle experiments. The information contained in low-duty-cycle pulsed signals is concentrated within a short time duration; thus, the idea behind the boxcar averager is to record the signal only during the...
Today, lock-in amplifiers are widespread instruments used to measure small signals buried in noise. Thanks to their versatility, they can be tailored to different experiments and address a large variety of applications...
