What is the basic principle of digital television?
Digital television is simply the process of broadcasting a digital signal, instead of an analog one. This results in better sound and picture quality, as well as increased coverage.
What are the advantages of digital data compared to analog data?
Digital data requires less bandwidth than analog data (e.g. new digital television broadcast compared to old analog broadcast), so more data can fit in the same frequency (e.g. DSL compared to analog modems). This is the primary advantage, although it is also generally stated that data is easier to recover and more tolerant towards interference.

Is sine wave used in analog or digital?
No and yes. Digital signals are usually square or pulse waves. By Fourier analysis, however, every periodic wave, even a square wave, is the summation of some series (often infinite) of sine waves.
What are digital converters used for?
Digital converters are used to convert an analog input into a digital current. They also have converters that covert from digital to analog. These are used for older model TVs that need to take a newer digital technology input but the tv still requires analog.
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.
Where can one buy analog to digital tv converters?
Analog to digital television converters are a popular item that are widely available in department stores, electronic stores, discount stores, office supply shops, home improvement stores, warehouse clubs and even some dollar stores such as Dollar General. Online, they can be ordered from both Amazon and eBay.

Persons who owned analog televisions had to either buy a new digital television or use a converter box to get a clear signal.
If your Vizio LCD TV only has an optical audio output how do you hook up your RCA cables that go to your stereo?
You need to buy a "Digital to Analog audio converter" (around $70 with Gefen brand). It will convert the Digital output (Optical) into a analog signal for your speakers. These converters rarely provide RCA cables(male/male) and Optical Cable(male/male). So you will have to buy them too. http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=5279
How can one watch TV for free without cable?

What is digital analog?
Analog TV:Analog (or analogue) television encodes television picture and sound information and transmits it as an analog signal: one in which the message conveyed by the broadcast signal is a function of deliberate variations in the amplitude and/or frequency of the signal. All systems preceding digital television, such as NTSC, PAL or SECAM are analog television systems. Digital TV:Digital television (DTV) is the sending and receiving of moving images and sound by discrete (digital) signals, in contrast to the analog signals used by analog TV.
