Lock-in amplifiers were invented in the 1930's and commercialized in the mid 20th century as electrical instruments capable of extracting signal amplitudes and phases in extremely noisy environments... They employ a homodyne detection scheme and low-pass filtering to measure a signal' s amplitude and phase relative to a periodic reference. 2, record 1, English, - lock%2Din%20amplifier
