Hum or hum noise (also simply hum) is a low “buzzing” noise corresponding to the power supply frequency. Generally, hum refers to sounds close to sine waves with few overtones. Noise containing harmonics is called buzz (Buzz). Derives from English Hum; when treated as noise, mainly has 2 meanings. Low-frequency sound heard accompanying the operation of machinery. Heard mixed with audio from sound-producing equipment such as radios and amplified speakers. The main subject of this entry. The word’s connotations sometimes cause confusion with the phenomenon where a microphone picks up sound output by a speaker, amplifying it without limit into a shrill sound; for that, see the entries on howling or oscillation circuits.
