Analogue and digital electronics
Upon receipt of your specifications, we can establish an offer for the development of your electronic board. The choice of analog or digital technology will be discussed with our engineers.
Analog electronic
1. Definition :
- It processing of signals continues which varies in amplitude and time. Values can take on infinite levels
2. Features :
-
Signal: An analog signal represents data in continuous forms, such as audio, radio signals, etc.
-
Components: Use components such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes and transistors.
-
Applications: Amplifiers, filters, oscillators, and modulation systems.
3. Advantages :
-
Simple to design simple signals.
-
No conversion necessary between analog and digital.
4. Disadvantages :
-
Sensitive to noise and interference.
-
Less precise than digital systems for signal processing.
Numeric electronic
1. Definition :
- Deals with discrete signals, where data is represented in binary form (0 and 1).
2. Features :
- Signal : A digital signal represents information in the form of bits.
- Components : Use logic gates, integrated circuits, microcontrollers, and FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays).
- Applications : Calculators, computers, telecommunications, and signal processing
3. Advantages :
- Less sensitive to noise and interference.
-
More precise and flexible in data processing.
-
Easy integration and miniaturization.
4. Disadvantages :
-
Often requires converters (analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog).
-
More complex to design for certain applications.
