Berners, Dave. Ask the Doctors: Tube vs. Solid-State Harmonics. UA WebZine. Universal Audio. October 2005 [2016-09-22]. (原始內容存檔於2018-01-01). To summarize, if the function f(x) is odd, a cosine input will produce no even harmonics. If the function f(x) is even, a cosine input will produce no odd harmonics (but may contain a DC component). If the function is neither odd nor even, all harmonics may be present in the output.
