Basic FAQ for FFT Analyzer

Question number FAQ-0765

What is a spectrum?

Spectrum refers to the intensity distribution obtained by decomposing the intensity of any signal into its frequency components.

The FFT analyzer decomposes a time signal into frequency bands, with the horizontal axis representing frequency and the vertical axis representing the signal strength (magnitude), which is particularly called the frequency spectrum.
