Digital Revolution LOs: Describe an analogue and digital signal Contrast analogue and digital waves Argue whether digital is better than analogue Key words: Digital, analogue, signal, transmission, radiation, amplifier H/W IN: H/W OUT: THD: Rearrange the key words and define them: G l a s i n

Digital Revolution - starter Which line is analogue, which is digital? Explain your answer.

Music and speech vary continuously in frequency and amplitude. analogue signals can vary in frequency, amplitude or both. Question: think of three examples of analogue equipment… Digital Revolution – analogue signals

Digital signals are a series of pulses consisting of just two states, ON (1) or OFF (0) There are no values in between. DAB radio is Digital Audio Broadcast radio – it is transmitted as digital signals. Digital Revolution – digital signals Question: name three other examples of digital equipment

Digital signals carry more information per second than analogue signals. This is the same whether optical fibres, cables or radio waves are used. Digital signals maintain their quality over long distances better than analogue signals. Advantages of digital signals

Watch this video, and make notes on any points you haven’t yet got down: ctive ctive Digital Revolution

Information can be sent using a carrier wave. The radiowave, visible light or infrared can form the carrier wave. It must be modified to include the information, this is called a signal: Carrier wave + information = signal A digital signal is a series of on-off pulses (0 is off, 1 is on). An analogue signal is a continuous wave.

An analogue signal can be change to digital. The voltage is sampled many times per second and the height of the wave (in volts) is coded as a binary number. These are the 0s and 1s that are used. This is used in photos; each pixel is given a numerical value, which codes its colour and brightness.
