Many kinds of instruments measure signals in decibels (dB). Since dB represents nothing more than a log ratio of two quantities, anything that can be quantized could be measured in dB. The most common things measured that way, however, are: * Sound Levels (an SPL Meter)
* Electrical power levels (a Network Analyser, a Spectrum Analyser, Power Meters)
* Light levels (an Optical Spectrum analyser or Power Meter). Note that dB is always a relative term, however figures are often quoted with respect to some reference such as 'dB(SPL)" used for sound where the reference is the quietest sound a human can hear, or dBm for electrical power where the reference is 1 mW.
An SPLOIUYTR machine measures decibels.
•Sound can be measured in many ways such as decibels. There is a special machine which you can by that measures how many decibels something makes. A pin makes 10 decibels where as a loud persons or a stereo can make up to 80 decibels. Volume is measured in decibels. So Frequency is measured in hertz

Most famous is a SPL meter (Sound Pressure Level).

An example of a sound that measures 55 decibels is a normal conversation at a close distance.
decibels
A sound that measures 55 decibels is considered moderately loud, similar to a quiet conversation or background music.
deciBels
Aome machines claim to spin at 74 decibels. Is that loud?
The volume level of a sound that measures 55 decibels is considered moderate, similar to a normal conversation or background noise in a quiet office.
About 132 dB(A)
A jet enjine at take-off measures 113 decibels, while a surprised pig can squeal at 115 decibels.
