Signals are everywhere, even if you don’t think about them much. They’re what make things like streaming a movie, making a phone call, or listening to music possible. But not all signals are created ...

Analog vs. Digital: What’s the Difference? Air temperature, sound loudness,light intensity—in nature, all of these quantities vary smoothly and continuously over a range. Such quantities is called ...

Analog pedals use traditional circuit components to create warm, continuous signals, while digital pedals use computer chips for precise effects processing Gain-based effects typically sound more ...

Differences between digital and analog triggering. Advantages of digital triggering. How to tell what type of triggering is used by an oscilloscope. An oscilloscope’s trigger function, which ...

How analog signal engineering is performed, in broad strokes. What are the component-selection considerations for new designs? What are VFAs and how are they used? Analog signal engineers specialize ...

This is just a general question. I know, obviously, that there are RS-232 "serial ports" and IEEE 1284/Centronix ports "parallel ports," and that these are "digital" connections. Then you have things ...

MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) microphone technology is here to stay, so it is crucial to understand that technology. When it comes to choosing an analog or digital MEMS microphone, the ...

Researchers at RIT have improved the electronics used in communication and radar systems to better process signals using electromagnetic radio waves. This breakthrough could advance computing ...
