I'm not sure if you are speaking of a specific instance.... However, a digital signal is a binary representation of the analog signal. The analog signal is constantly measured and the amplitude (voltage at the time of sample) of the analog signal is converted to a binary number at specific intervals (the frequency of the sample rate). The higher the frequency of the sample rate, the more accurate the representation of the analog signal.

What is the difference between analog and digital modulation Does it depends on baseband signal?

The basic difference is that in analog modulation the modulating signal is analog signal and in digital modulation it is in digital form.


What is difference between vga and lcd display?

The main difference between the tow is the signal. VGA uses an analog signal and DVI is a digital signal.


Difference between analog and digital signal processing?

we can do analog signal processing also but it is very expensive as comparing with digital signal processing that's why we generally choose the digital signal processing.DSP allows programmable operations.But we cannot do in ASP.


What is quantization error?

Error resulting from trying to represent a continuous analog signal with discrete, stepped digital data. The problem arises when the analog value being sampled falls between two digital "steps." When this happens, the analog value must be represented by the nearest digital value, resulting in a very slight error. In other words, the difference between the continuous analog waveform, and the stair-stepped digital representation is quantization error.


Whats the difference between analog and digital signal?

Analog signals are continuous while digital signals are discrete

What is difference between ask and am?

The most fundamental difference, I would say, is that Amplitude Modulation (AM) is a kind of Analog Modulation Technique (the modulation is applied continuously in response to the analog information signal) where Amplitude Shift Keying is a type of Digital Modulation Technique ( an analog carrier signal is modulated by a discrete signal, digital modulation methods can be considered as digital-to-analog conversion, and the corresponding demodulation or detection as analog-to-digital conversion. The changes in the carrier signal are chosen from a finite number of M alternative symbols).


Differentiate between an analog and a digital electromagnetic signal?

1. Digital Signal is non-continuous signal where as analog is continuous signal 2. Digital signal contain only two value that is 0 or 1,or high or low where as analog contain all the values in it's time interval 3.Chance of attenuation in analog is more then digital signal
