What is the term for a device that converts digital data from a computer into analog signals and back again?

The devices are known very simply as analog to digital converters and digital to analog converters. They are frequently shorted to A-D and D-A converters. A complete analog to digital converter will not only convert the analog signal into a set of numbers, it will also format the digital data ready to deliver to the next step in the signal chain. In television, this means generating a fairly complex stream of data that will carry not only the picture but audio and other data as well. Digital to analog converters reverse the process and use the incoming data to generate an analog signal. In television, well know examples are the digital set top boxes. They receive digital data from an antenna and convert the numbers into analog audio and video signals.


Does a kv-36hs500 by Sony need a converter box?

Yes, this model will need a converter box to function after the digital conversion. I have the same television and called SONY to find out. The model has an analog tuner, therfore it requires a digital to analog converter box. This model is capable of high definition video quality because it has a picture resolution of 1080i. I am buying the Samsung DTB-H260F Digital Receiver for a converter box because it will provide the television with a high definition analog signal through the component video outputs. If you buy a lesser converter box it will only provide a 420i signal to the television even if an over the air high definition signal is available.
