sampling frequency
The number of times an analog
signal is measured (sampled) per second. The unit of sample
rate is "samples per second". This is often expressed in
kiloHertz (kHz). For example, "CD quality" sound has a
sample rate of 44 kHz.
Compare data rate. See Nyquist frequency.
[Is it correct to use Hertz for things other than the
frequency of a sine wave?]
