Analog to Digital conversion takes place in 3 steps:-
1] SAMPLING: which measures the amplitude of
the signal at equal interval.



 2] Quantization: is the process of rounding of the
 signal to the nearest finite level.




3Code word generation: finally converts the signal
into binary form.

If the message signal
is coming from
                          Then it is in the proper form for
                          processing by a digital
                          communication system




                           In such a case it has to be
                           converted into a discrete time
                           signal .

               Sampling process
Sampling is the process of converting a continuous analog signal to a
discrete analog signal and the sampled signal is the discrete time
representation of the original analog signal .




                                                  Sampling

Rate of frequency at which sampling occurs is known as sampling
rate or sampling frequency , and denotes the number of sample
taken per second or per inch .




It determines the quality of output signal
Digital audio

Sample rate                                             Bit depth


                            Higher

                      Better quality of audio

               1 KHz = 1000 samples/second.
Bit Depth refers to how much information is captured with a
sample. Each sample measures the amplitude (shape) of the
wave, and higher bit depths allow the analog shape to be more
closely matched.
In the diagrams below, the X axis represents sample rate (each
line equals one sample) and the Y axis represents bit depth.




At a low bit depth, the shape of   At a low sample rate, the
the wave cannot be matched         shape of the wave also cannot
very closely                       be matched very closely




At a higher sample rate            However, the higher the
and bit depth, the shape of        frequency of the sound, the
the wave can be more               more difficult it is to closely
closely matched.                   match the wave.
This theorem states that the sampling rate on analog-to-
digital conversions must be at least two times the value of
the highest frequency you want to capture.

The 2nd process of ANALOG
TO DIGITAL CONVERSION
involves Quantization.
Quantization is a process of
approximation or rounding off.

The message signal is sampled &
amplitude of each sample is
approximated {rounded off} to
the nearest of a discrete levels
called Quantization.
Quantization levels refers to the number of different
sample values that can be used to represent a digital
quantity.

 To start with we may have thousands of sample values
but we may want to retain only a few hundreds of
them.

Opting for higher values, we do get a better quality
representation, but it will increase cost for storage &
processing of these values in computer.

Hence we decide on a particular level of quality
required by us:
Example:
  Scan images In medical application needs to be
  of highest quality for proper diagnosis, but for a
  digital road map lower quality causes no harm.
       And this process of selecting a fewer
  numbers of amplitude levels from a large set is
  know as amplitude discretization
The process of approximation or
rounding off is called as
Quantization process.

A device or algorithm function
that performs Quantization is
called Quantizer.

The signal is approximated or
rounded off to the nearest
standard pre decided voltage
levels. These levels are
known as Quantization
levels.
Quantizer converts the sampled
 signal into an approximate
 quantized signal which consists of
 only pre decided voltage level.
After the quantization step, the amplitude
levels obtained are expressed as fraction
of the difference between the minimum
and maximum values.

Code word generation involves expressing
these amplitude levels in terms of binary
codes or numbers , because that is finally
how the data would be represented within
a computer.
1]Optical fibers


2]Digital signals can be compressed so more
  channels can be transmitted along the same
  medium.

3]Can connect several different users
to the same link eg: video conferencing


4] Digital signals suffer less from noise because
   any errors can be detected and corrected
   using regenerators.

Notas do Editor

  1. NOWWe will b going to present on a topic Analog to Digital Converter..
  2. In this Presentation we will give an in-depth explanation about 1st.What is analog-to-digital conversion 2nd one is Sampling , which will b presented by Raj.3rd one is Quantization , By ShaileshAnd lastCode theory will b presented by Anurag .
  3. **********************************ASHUTOSH************************************Signals in the real world are analog: light sounds So, real-world signals must be converted into digital, using a circuit called ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter).When we scan a picture with a scanner ..what the scanner is doing is an analog-to-digital conversion: it is taking the analog information provided by the picture (light) and converting into digital.When we record our voice we are using an analog-to-digital converter to convert our voice, which is analog, into digital..When an audio CD is recorded at a studio, once again analog-to-digital is taking place, converting sounds into digital numbers that will be stored on the disc.
  4. Whenever we need the analog signal back, the opposite conversion digital-to-analog, which is done by a circuit called DAC, Digital-to-Analog Converter is neededWhen you play an audio CD, what the CD player is doing is reading digital information stored on the disc and converting it back to analog so you can hear the music.But, why digital? There are some basic reasons to use digital signals instead of analog, noise being the number one.Since analog signals can assume any value, noise is interpreted as being part of the original signal.Digital systems, on the other hand, can only understand two numbers, zero and one. Anything different from this is discarded. Thats why you wont hear any unwanted noise when listening to an audio CD, even if you played it thousands of times before
  5. IF the message signal is coming from a digital source (e.g. a digital computer) then it is in the proper form for processing by a digital communication system.But this is not always the case . The message signal can be analog in nature (e.g. speech or video signal).In such a case it has to be converted into a discrete time signal . We use the sampling process to do this.
  6. Sampling is the process of converting a continuous analog signal to a discrete analog signal and the sampled signal is the discrete time representation of the original analog signal .Sampling means measuring the amplitude of the signal at equal intervals.Sampling means bifurcating(Breaking) down the continuous wave to a discrete set of points.Sampling is done by examining the wave at certain points and recording the values at those point’s.
  7. **************************************SHAILESH**********************************Zooming in, we see the sample values (on the vertical axis) at regular time intervals (the horizontal axis). Note that the numbers are not exact, but are rounded to the nearest whole number. For example, the second sample is between 13 and 14 volts, but it is rounded to 14. The sampling illustrated above produces a list of twelve 5-bit binary numbers, as shown below.
  8. Rate of frequency at which sampling occurs is known as sampling rate or sampling frequency , and denotes the number of sample taken per second or per inch . It determines the quality of output signalHigher the sampling rate more is the number of samples of the original wave that are obtained
  9. Digital audio is a computerized representation of real-life sounds. The quality of the audio is determined by the sample rate and bit depth at which the audio was captured. The higher the sample rate and bit depth (within reason!), the better the quality of the audio. Sample Rate refers to how many times per second the audio information is captured. Sample rates are measured in Kilohertz (KHz). 1 KHz equals 1000 samples per second. So, audio recorded at 44.1 KHz captures data at a rate of 44,100 samples per second. Most audio interfaces support sample rates of 44.1, 48, 88.2, and 96 KHz. Many higher-end devices also support 176.4 and 192 KHz sample rates as well. Bit Depth refers to how much information is captured with a sample. Each sample measures the amplitude (shape) of the wave, and higher bit depths allow the analog shape to be more closely matched
  10. . Imagine a piece of graph paper, on which you were trying to line up the graph with the smooth analog curve of a sine wave. The smaller the boxes on the graph (higher bit depth), the more closely you could match the shape of the sine wave.
  11. This theorem states that the sampling rate on analog-to-digital conversions must be at least two times the value of the highest frequency you want to capture.Since the human ear listens to sounds up to the frequency of 20 kHz, for music we need to use a sampling rate of at least 40,000 Hz. In fact, the CD uses a 44,100 Hz sampling rate, thus capturing more than our ears can hear (this value was arbitrated by Phillips and Sony when they created the CD). Some professional audio applications use an even higher sampling rate.The phone system, on the other hand, was created to transmit only human voice, which has a lower frequency range, up to 4 kHz. So on the digital part of the phone system, an 8,000 Hz sampling rate is used. Thats why if you try to transmit music through the phone the quality is bad: the phone circuitry cancels all frequencies above 4 kHz (ask a friend to put his/her phone near a stereo playing and you will hear what we are talking about).
  12. ************************************RAJ*****************************************The 2nd process of ANALOG TO DIGITAL CONVERSION involves Quantization.Quantization is a process of approximation or rounding off.The message signal is sampled & amplitude of each sample is approximated {rounded off} to the nearest of a discrete levels called Quantization.Hence we decide on a particular level of quality required by us:Eg: Scan images In medical application needs to be of highest quality for proper diagnosis, but for a digital road map lower quality causes no harm.And this process of selecting a fewer numbers of amplitude levels from a large set is know as amplitude discretization.
  13. Quantization levels:Quantization levels refers to the number of different sample values that can be used to represent a digital quantity. image- few hundreds sample values from thousands Opting for higher values, we do get a better quality representation, but it will increase cost for storage & processing of these values in computer.

The process of approximation or rounding off is called as Quantization process.Quantizer converts the sampled signal into an approximate quantized signal which consists of only pre decided voltage level.Each sampled value at the input of the QuantizerIs approximated or rounded off to the nearest stabdard pre decided voltage levels. These levels are known as Quantization levels.
  15. After the quantization step , we have a set of sample values quantized to a specific number of levels , occurring at specific instant of time(or space). The amplitude levels of the samples are expressed as fraction of the difference between the minimum and maximum values. Code word generation involves expressing these amplitude levels in terms of binary codes or numbers , because that is finally how the data would be represented within a computer.The quantized samples are then converted to the digital signal In the form of a train or stream of binary digit 0 and 1 .

  16. 1]Optical fibers used to transmit digital signals are cheap & easily available.3]Can connect several different users to the same link – such as video conferencing.
  17. 1] Digital signals need more ‘bandwidth to transmit the same information.2] The transmitter and receiver have to synchronize very carefully so that the information makes sense.
