Difference between the digital and analog signal?

In: Electronics Engineering [Edit categories]

Answer:

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.
