  2. Comparison of analog and digital recording - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_analog_and...

    With analog, this comes in the form of outboard hardware components, and with digital, the same is typically accomplished with plug-ins in a digital audio workstation (DAW). A comparison of analog and digital filtering shows technical advantages to both methods. Digital filters are more precise and flexible.

  3. Demodulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demodulation

    Demodulation is extracting the original information-bearing signal from a carrier wave. A demodulator is an electronic circuit (or computer program in a software-defined radio) that is used to recover the information content from the modulated carrier wave. [1] There are many types of modulation so there are many types of demodulators.

  4. Digital recording - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_recording

    Recording. The analog signal is transmitted from the input device to an analog-to-digital converter (ADC).; The ADC converts this signal by repeatedly measuring the momentary level of the analog (audio) wave and then assigning a binary number with a given quantity of bits (word length) to each measurement point.

  5. Digital audio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_audio

    Digital audio is a representation of sound recorded in, or converted into, digital form. In digital audio, the sound wave of the audio signal is typically encoded as numerical samples in a continuous sequence. For example, in CD audio, samples are taken 44,100 times per second, each with 16-bit sample depth. Digital audio is also the name for ...

  6. Data acquisition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_acquisition

    Data acquisition. Data acquisition is the process of sampling signals that measure real-world physical conditions and converting the resulting samples into digital numeric values that can be manipulated by a computer. Data acquisition systems, abbreviated by the acronyms DAS, DAQ, or DAU, typically convert analog waveforms into digital values ...

  8. Digital electronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_electronics

    Digital electronics is a field of electronics involving the study of digital signals and the engineering of devices that use or produce them. This is in contrast to analog electronics which work primarily with analog signals. Despite the name, digital electronics designs includes important analog design considerations.

  9. Digital-to-analog converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital-to-analog_converter

    In electronics, a digital-to-analog converter (DAC, D/A, D2A, or D-to-A) is a system that converts a digital signal into an analog signal. An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) performs the reverse function. There are several DAC architectures; the suitability of a DAC for a particular application is determined by figures of merit including ...
