Converting analog to digital
• ADC – analog to digital conversion
• An analog voltage is converted in binary code
• Binary = “two states”
• Expressed as “1/0” or “on/off”
• Each digit is called a bit
• Bits are combined into longer binary numbers or “bit words”

Converting analog to digital
• If a single digit were used to express the voltage values – there would be only two values
• By creating clusters of binary digits in longer strings, many values may be represented
• Two digits could describe four values:
00 – 11 – 10 – 01

Converting analog to digital
• The number of digits in the binary number or “bit word” is called the bit rate
• For many years the standard for consumer audio (compact disks) has been 16-bit, or binary numbers with sixteen digits
• 16-bit sampling will allow over 65,000 various combinations of digits
• 16-bit sampling produces acceptable fidelity for most puposes

Converting analog to digital
• Another variable which determines the accuracy of analog to digital conversion is the sampling rate
• Sampling rate describes how frequently the analog voltage is measured and converted into digital data
![Page 6: MDIA 308 Digital technologies. Converting analog to digital ADC – analog to digital conversion An analog voltage is converted in binary code Binary =](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56649da65503460f94a92430/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Nyquist Principle
• The Nyquist principle states that the highest frequency that can be sample is one half the sampling rate
• Thus, a sampling rate of 44,100 samples per second would accurately reproduce frequencies up to 22,050 Hz.
• Since most humans hear frequencies no higher than 20,000 Hz, 44.1 is acceptable

Sampling rate
Each red point along the timeline represents one sample
![Page 8: MDIA 308 Digital technologies. Converting analog to digital ADC – analog to digital conversion An analog voltage is converted in binary code Binary =](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56649da65503460f94a92430/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Sampling rate
A low sampling rate induces sampling error represented here as a misshapen wave form
![Page 9: MDIA 308 Digital technologies. Converting analog to digital ADC – analog to digital conversion An analog voltage is converted in binary code Binary =](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56649da65503460f94a92430/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Sampling rate
A higher sampling rate reduces sampling error represented here as a more accurate wave form
![Page 10: MDIA 308 Digital technologies. Converting analog to digital ADC – analog to digital conversion An analog voltage is converted in binary code Binary =](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56649da65503460f94a92430/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Digitization
• At best, the digital data set is an approximation of the analog voltage that was sampled
• Converting the digital data back into an analog signal will have some inherent error
![Page 11: MDIA 308 Digital technologies. Converting analog to digital ADC – analog to digital conversion An analog voltage is converted in binary code Binary =](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56649da65503460f94a92430/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Digitization
Over sampling and higher sampling rates produce more accurate wave forms

Data management
• High fidelity audio (wide frequency response and high dynamic range) requires large data sets
• HD video storage requires even larger data sets
![Page 13: MDIA 308 Digital technologies. Converting analog to digital ADC – analog to digital conversion An analog voltage is converted in binary code Binary =](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062409/56649da65503460f94a92430/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Data management
• Down sampling or down conversion lower the sampling and bit rates to produce smaller files
• To help manage data, compression schemes remove redundancies and use “masking” of some content
