What is the structure and type of harmonics generated by a very differentiated square wave (i.e bipolar spikes)?
this question is in two parts.
Firstly, can you please tell me what the structure and amplitude distribution is of harmonics generated by a differentiated square wave of 50% duty cycle, where the time ...

Logic analyzer gives me much more pulses than expected
Let me start the question by saying that I am using a logic analyzer for the first time, so I am probably doing something wrong.
I sniffed the signal that goes to a speaker. The signal is probably PWM....
