What does a lock-in amplifier do?

Lock-in amplifiers are used to detect and measure very small AC signalsall the way down to a few nanovolts. Accurate measurements may be made even when the small signal is obscured by noise sources many thousands of times larger.

What is the purpose for dual phase lock-in amplifier?

A complete digital dual-phase lock-in amplifier system based on DSP and LabVIEW was designed. It can extract the weak sinusoidal signals submerged by noise. This design has the advantages of high accuracy, low cost and portability, and its update and transplantation are easy.

How does a lock-in work?

Lock-in parties are parties where individuals can enter and leave at a specified time. For example, if the party starts at 5:30 or 6:00 PM, it will end at 10:00 or 11:00 AM. Whatever it is, a lock-in party must begin early and have a sleepover.
