Summary

Introduction

As Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) [1] and Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) [2], [3] are frequently applied in various science disciplines: medicine, diagnostics and material investigations as well. For most instruments of this field the use of lock-in amplifier is indispensable in the measurement method. There are several approaches for developing lock-in amplifiers using different technological concepts and methodologies. Paper [4] describes a digital implementation of a lock- in amplifier, based on the classic quadrature technique and on a mathematical algorithm for error signal extraction. The tech market offers many instruments, which are developed with different functionalities applying the lock-in amplifier technique for the measurement. In case of high precision measurements many methods are used: Fourier analysis [10], information-filtering demodulation [11], impedance measurement system based on digital auto-balancing bridge [12], four-point single sinusoidal signals instantaneous frequency estimation method [13], or the lock-in amplifier method [14], [15]. Keysight Technologies is one of the leader companies that offers high-precision impedance measuring and analyzing instruments [18]
