Energy is split between the two filters and the peak amplitude falls to 95.6 mV, a loss of 3.9 dB. Setting the input frequency to exactly 50 MHz centers the signal in the resolution bandwidth and the amplitude of the spectral peak is 150 mV.įigure 2 An expanded view of the FFT output shows the amplitude response as the input frequency is changed in increments of one half the resolution bandwidth.Ĭhanging the input frequency to 50.1 MHz places the input signal between the two filters at 50.0 MHz and 50.2 MHz. In our example, the input time signal has a duration of 5 μs and the resolution bandwidth is 200 kHz. The resolution bandwidth of the FFT is the reciprocal of the time duration of the input signal. If the input signal frequency falls between the two bandpass filter center frequencies, the amplitude is lower ( Figure 2).

If the input signal frequency falls in the center of one of these bandpass filters the full output amplitude is shown at the output. You might think of the FFT output as being the result of passing the input through a bank of bandpass filters with center frequencies offset by a fixed frequency increment, which is sometimes described as the FFT bin width or resolution bandwidth. The discrete nature of the FFT output can cause some confusion in interpreting the spectral amplitude. The frequency spectrum produced by the FFT is discrete it has valid amplitude data only at k uniformly spaced frequency values. It is expressed in units of dBm/Hz.įFT processing factors affecting the FFT vertical output The power spectral density normalizes the power spectrum value to the effective resolution bandwidth so that its value does not change with changes in analysis bandwidth. The power spectrum format scale is logarithmic, and the values are in units of decibels relative to a milliwatt (dBm). The linear magnitude format, which is displayed in Figure 1, is calculated as a root mean square value, but is scaled to read spectral amplitude as peak volts so that the peak amplitude of the spectral line matches the peak amplitude of the input sine wave. In this example, based on Teledyne LeCroy’s Maui Studio application, which simulates a number of their oscilloscopes, the FFT is available in these five formats along with the native real and imaginary format. Power spectrum (dBm) = 10*Log 10ĮNBW = effective noise bandwidth, weighting dependentĭifferent oscilloscope suppliers may offer various combinations of these FFT output formats and may scale them differently. The FFT native output data types, real (R) and imaginary (I), are both expressed in units of volts, all other formats are derived from them: The outputs can be displayed in a number of formats based on the calculated real and imaginary FFT output components. The computation normally computes the real and imaginary parts of each output point. This is a mathematically complex equation, and each output point has two elements. The result is nonzero only if the input has energy at the test frequency. At each test frequency the product is averaged.

The physical interpretation of the Fourier transform is that the input samples, x(n), are tested by multiplication of a series of sinusoids represented by the complex exponential, e -jπkn/N, in the equation. N = number of input samples in the record The FFT calculation is based on the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) as described by the equation: 【Webinar】Leverage the new features of the STM32 ecosystem to enhance your STM32U5 designs
