=== RTD ===
 
The RTD (model) doesn't seem to be magnetic.
 
=== Noise comparison ===
 
==== PSD ====
 
The 32-bit version performs as good as the hardware lock-in. For some reason, the hardware lock-in PSD noise increases for higher frequencies, and for the 32-bit FPGA lockin it doesn't. The 32-bit version has 50 times smaller noise level than the 16-bit version.

The data is acquired at the sampling rate of 500 ksps, and then averaged to approximately 200 sps (final FPGA filter has fc=180 Hz). This should improve the bit resolution by a factor of Sqrt(500 ksps/200 sps) = Sqrt(2500) = 50 (6-7 bits).
 
The estimated gain was 25 μV/fT. The LSB voltage step is 300 μV, the effective LSB after averaging should be 300/50 = 6 μV = 0.25 fT.
 
 
==== Filtering/digitization ====
 
The digitization of the signal is not visible in the 32 bit version.
