  • Abstract
    Measurements of the dynamic performance of eight different digitizers are presented and analysed to show the types and magnitudes of error to which each digitizer is prone. The impact of these errors on the measurements of fast single-shot transients, such as front chopped impulses with times-to-chopping in the range of 500 ns (the fastest covered by the standards) to a few ns, is examined. The suitable range of application of each digitizer is deduced.
