Abstract
A lock-in amplifier is provided which allows detection of a signal buried in noise without preprocessing of the input signal. An analog signal multiplier is used to obtain a dc output which is the product of the signal being detected and a high-purity sine wave signal. A reference signal of a known selectable frequency is applied to a sine-wave generator to generate the sine wave of the same frequency. The sine wave is applied to a multiplier through a phase shift arrangement to allow the detection of both amplitude of the detected signal and the phases relative to the reference signal. The multiplier output is filtered by a low-pass filter to eliminate unwanted frequency components from the output signal.
