1.

What is the difference between analogue and digital signal?

Analogue signal is a continuously variable electrical or physical quantity, for example temperature and
alternating current (ac) electrical signal. Digital signals have discrete set of value represented by two voltage
level, for example compact disk data.

2.

Why do we need to use digital representation to describe analogue system?

It is much easier to perform the analogue information in digital signal when we want to computer or electronic
machine to interpret, communicate, store and manipulate the analogue information.

3.

List the advantages and disadvantages of digital system over analogue system.
The advantages of digital compared to analogue techniques are:
Information storage for further manipulation.
Accurate and precise.
Noise Immune.
Easy to design.
The disadvantages are:
The real world is analogue.
Processing digitized signal takes time.
