Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What does THD measure?

  • Response time
  • Distortion of a signal
  • Gain of the amplifier

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about what happens to a signal after it passes through an op-amp.

Question 2

A THD value lower than what percentage is generally ideal for high-fidelity audio?

  • 0.5%
  • 1.0%
  • 0.1%

πŸ’‘ Hint: High-quality sound requires low distortion levels.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have an op-amp with an output signal that produces 100 mW of fundamental power and 5 mW of harmonic power. Calculate the THD.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use the THD formula to set up your calculation correctly.

Question 2

Discuss the effects of increased THD on both audio fidelity and measurement instruments. Provide examples.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how our senses perceive sound and how measurements need clarity.
