t
gw
Gate pulse width.
THD Total harmonic distortion—the ratio of the total rms signal due to harmonic
distortion to the overall rms signal, in dB or percent.
THD+N Signal-to-THD plus noise—the ratio in decibels of the overall rms signal to
the rms signal of harmonic distortion, plus noise introduced.
thermocouple A temperature sensor created by joining two dissimilar metals. The
junction produces a small voltage as a function of the temperature.
t
off
An offset (delayed) pulse; the offset is t nanoseconds from the falling edge
of the AI CONV CLK* signal.
t
out
Output delay time.
t
p
Period of a pulse train.
transducer See sensor.
t
sc
Source clock period.
t
sp
Source pulse width.
