Digital computers, well, your using one to ask your question!

Digital computers, most people just call them Computers, or PC's, are used for a variety of things.

For one, the internet, which you are using right now on a Digital computer. All computers are digital.

Perhaps you should research PC's

Other uses:

Games

Writting documents

Reading information

Information databases

Website hosting (servers)

Research

Data collection

And so much more!

Which converter would be used to allow speakers to output analog sound from digital devise?

A digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is used to allow speakers to output analog sound from a digital device. The DAC takes the digital audio signal and converts it into an analog signal that can be sent to the speakers for playback. Many devices, such as smartphones, computers, and audio interfaces, have built-in DACs, but external DACs can also be used for improved sound quality.


Where is digital signal found?

Digital signals are found in various applications, including telecommunications, computer networks, and digital audio/video systems. They are used in devices such as smartphones, computers, and digital cameras, where information is represented in discrete binary values (0s and 1s). Additionally, digital signals are prevalent in broadcasting, data storage, and digital media streaming, enabling efficient transmission and processing of information.


Apart from analog hybrid and digital computers what are the other types of computers?

That is it. All known computers can be put in one of those categories. Some may argue that a neural net computer (like the human brain) defines a fourth type of computer, but even that really is a hybrid.


How do computer calculate?

Digital computers calculate by manipulating encoded symbols using logic circuits.Analog computers calculate in a wide variety of ways with continuous analogous representation of data.

What is the difference between digital computers and hybrid computers?

Digital computers are purely digital, i.e. they use digital(electronic) means to process data. Hybrid computers conversely use both digital and analog technologies.


Why analogue to digital conversions is needed when computers are used in monitoring and measuring?

Because - computers can only process digital information. Therefore all analogue input must be converted to digital before processing.


Why are the fourth generation computers called digital computers?

Because the first, second, and third generation computers were also digital computers.


What was the computer made of?

Several early digital computers were made of electromechanical devices similar to those used to build automatic dial telephone exchanges used at the time. First generation digital computers were made of vacuum tubes. Second generation digital computers were made of discrete transistors (most used germanium transistors but later some silicon transistors). Third generation digital computers were made of (hybrid, SSI, MSI, LSI) silicon integrated circuits. Fourth generation digital computers are made of microprocessors and other (VLSI, ULSI, etc.) silicon integrated circuits.
