Useful Second Order Equations
In the following equations f refers to the fundamental frequency, and 2f refers to the second-order distortion component frequencies.
- OSOIdBm = ISOIdBm+GdB
- Pout,f,dBm = Pin,f,dBm - ISOIdBm + OSOIdBm
- Pout,2f,dBm = 2Pin,f,dBm - 2ISOIdBm + OSOIdBm
- Pin,2f,dBm = 2Pin,f,dBm - ISOIdBm
- Pout,2f,dBm = 2Pout,f,dBm - OSOIdBm
is the difference in power between the fundamental output and the output of the second-order components, as shown on the figure to the right.

Famous quotes containing the word order:
“We enter parliament in order to supply ourselves, in the arsenal of democracy, with its own weapons.... If democracy is so stupid as to give us free tickets and salaries for this bear’s work, that is its affair.... We do not come as friends, nor even as neutrals. We come as enemies. As the wolf bursts into the flock, so we come.”
—Joseph Goebbels (1897–1945)
