Professor A G Constantinides© DIGITAL FILTERS Analogue Vs Digital Signal Processing Reliability: Analogue system performance degrades due to: · Long term drift (ageing) · Short term drift (temperature?) · Sensitivity to voltage instability. · Batch-to-Batch component variation. · High discrete component count Interconnection failures Professor A G Constantinides©
Professor A G Constantinides© DIGITAL FILTERS Digital Systems: · No short or long term drifts. · Relative immunity to minor power supply variations. · Virtually identical components. · IC’s have > 15 year lifetime · Development costs · System changes at design/development stage only software changes. · Digital system simulation is realistic.
