The total harmonic distortion plus noise (THD+N) is measured directly by a distortion analyzer. The
distortion analyzer removes the fundamental with a notch filter and measures the signal out of the
notch filter and the total input signal into the notch filter. THD+N is the ratio
of
these
two
voltages.

two
BNC-to-dual-banana
plug adapters and
two
BNC-to-single-banana plug adapters (supplied with the Multifunction
Synthesizer) as necessary to maintain
a

two
BNC-to-single-banana plug adapters.)
