From Analog to Digital

In this lesson, we'll talk about the differences between the analog and digital world, and how to transform from one to the other.

Goals

• You understand the difference between analog and digital

• You have a basic understand of how to transform from analog to digital

• You are aware of the properties of analog and digital versions of the same signal

If we want computers perform tasks for us, we must represent our world in their terms: Large sequences of zeroes and ones. This is what we call digitization. Let's take a closer look at what that means.

In the video below, we'll talk about the differences between the analog and digital world. We'll look at the major difference between continuous and discrete values as an important differentiator. We will then look at 3 examples from the analog world and how we can transform them to the digital world.
