Is it incorrect to specify sample rate in terms of Hz? Sampling Techniques: Real-time / Equivalent Time / Statistical Sampling Continuous Sample Rate: 100 MHz Effective Sample Rate: 10 GHz Or is MS/s and GS/s a more correct way to specify this? Can any supporting discussion around that also be provided? Context: https://boonton.com/Portals/0/Products/Real%20Time%20Power%20Sensors/RTP5000/RTP_8PG_2019.pdf Thank you. |

1Hz = 1/s so technically correct :) Also common in audio, but S/s is more common in scopes to avoid confusion with bandwidth. BTW, what the fuck is one megasiemens per second? :-DD |

There's no convention for samples/second in the SI system, but both S (siemens) and s (seconds) are already reserved. My favourite would be to write it in full: Gsamples/second. That way, there's no ambiguity, and that's what communication is about :) |

Yes, I meant Sa/s But there was a question on if there could be two samples per Hz due to rising/falling edge sampling. |
