Analog and Digital Electronic Circuit

Description

There are basically two ways of representing the numerical value of quantities – analog and digital. Analog devices and systems process signals whose voltages or other quantities vary in a continuous manner. They can take on any value across a continuous range of voltage, current or other metric. The analog signals can have an infinite number of values. Analog systems can be called wave systems. They have a value that changes steadily over time and can have any one of an infinite set of values in a range. Analog signals represent some physical quantity and they can be a model of the real quantity. Most of the time, the variations corresponds to that of the non-electric (original) signal. The quantities that are to be measured, monitored, recorded, processed and controlled are analog and digital, depending on the type of system used. It is important when dealing with various quantities that we be able to represent their values efficiently and accurately.
