signal conditioning
1. Electronic eq
u
ipment that makes transd
u
cer or other signals s
u
itable in
level and range to be transmitted over a distance, or to interface with
voltage inp
u
t instr
u
ments.
2. The manip
u
lation of signals to prepare them for digitizing.
signal so
u
rce
A generic term for any instr
u
ment in the family of signal generators.
single trigger mode
When the arbitrary waveform generator goes thro
u
gh the staging list only
once.
single-b
u
ffered
Describes a device that acq
u
ires a specified n
u
mber of samples from one or
more channels and ret
u
rns the data when the acq
u
isition is complete.
single-ended inp
u
t
A circ
u
it that responds to the voltage on one inp
u
t terminal and gro
u
nd.

differential inp
u
t
.
single-ended o
u
tp
u
t
A circ
u
it whose o
u
tp
u
t signal is present between one o
u
tp
u
t terminal and
gro
u
nd.
software applications
The programs that r
u
n on yo
u
r comp
u
ter and perform a specific
u
ser-oriented f
u
nction, s
u
ch as acco
u
nting, program development,
meas
u
rement, or data acq
u
isition. In contrast, operating system f
u
nctions
basically perform the generic “ho
u
sekeeping” of the machine, which is
independent of any specific application. Operating system f
u
nctions
incl
u
de the saving of data (file system), handling of m
u
ltiple programs at
the same time (m
u
lti-tasking), network interconnection, printing, and
keyboard/
u
ser interface interaction.
software triggering
A method of triggering in which yo
u
sim
u
late an analog trigger
u
sing
software. Also called conditional retrieval.
so
u
rce impedance
A parameter of signal so
u
rces that reflects c
u
rrent-driving ability of voltage
so
u
rces (lower is better) and the voltage-driving ability of c
u
rrent so
u
rces
(higher is better).
synchrono
u
s
1. Hardware—A property of an event that is synchronized to a reference
clock.
2. Software—A property of a f
u
nction that begins an operation and
ret
u
rns only when the operation is complete. A synchrono
u
s process is,
therefore, locked and no other processes can r
u
n d
u
ring this time.
