why do you convert analogue to digital
what 2 processes does analogue to digital conversion involve
what is quantisation
assigning a value X from a set of N values into which measurement range is divided
what is sampling
capturing state of signal at fixed intervals
analog vs digital
analog:
- continuous signal
- range of voltages
- low bandwidth
- susceptible to noise
- hardware inflexible
digital:
- signal, clock frequency
- fixed voltage
- high bandwidth
- noise immune
- digital hardware flexible
