Abstract

Improved data acquisition systems and methods that enable large numbers of data samples to be accumulated rapidly with low noise are described. In accordance with this inventive approach, a plurality of data samples is produced from a transient sequence in response to sampling clock, and corresponding data samples across the transient sequence are accumulated in response to an accumulation clock that is shifted in phase relative to the sampling clock.
