Total Harmonic Distortion

If a specific project specification says "...amplifier must be linear such that the harmonic distortions are maintained below -40dB...", does that mean that a THD of -30dB would meet the requirements ...

What effect does bit depth of an ADC have on noise floor, THD, or any other specification?

I was told recently that there is a direct relationship between bit depth of a measurement adc and minimum measurable noise floor, which in turn affects accuracy of THD measurements of DUT. I'm afraid ...

What's the relationship between harmonic distortion and intermodulation distortion?

So if you take a sine wave and put it through a non-linear transfer function, it experiences harmonic distortion, which produces other sine wave components at integer multiples of the original. If ...
