Binary to Decimal Conversion

A binary number is written as a sum of powers of 2, where each digit's position corresponds to a power of 2.

Binary Number Notation

The subscript "2" indicates that the number is written in binary, not decimal.

Binary Fractions

Fractions in binary are represented using powers of 2, with negative exponents representing fractional values.

Sum of Weights Method

The "Sum of Weights" method is used to convert a binary representation to its decimal equivalent.

Analog Quantities

Analog quantities change smoothly over time, with values existing at every possible point within a range. Think of a thermometer: the mercury gradually rises or lowers, indicating all possible temperatures between the minimum and maximum.

Digital Quantities

Digital quantities are represented at discrete intervals, meaning they take on specific, fixed values within a range. Consider a digital clock: it shows only whole numbers, not fractions of seconds.

Sampling

Sampling involves measuring the value of a continuous signal at regular intervals. It's like taking snapshots of a moving object at set time points.

Reconstructed Signal

The reconstructed signal is the representation of the original continuous signal based on the sampled values. It's like using the snapshots to create a moving picture.

Undersampling

Undersampling occurs when the sampling rate is too low, leading to an inaccurate representation of the original signal. It's like taking too few pictures of a fast-moving object, missing critical details.

Digital Representation

In digital representation, a continuous signal is transformed into a series of discrete values through the process of sampling. Think of a smooth hill being converted into a series of steps.

Differences in Original and Reconstructed Signal

The difference between the original continuous signal and the reconstructed signal, especially when undersampling occurs, highlights the limitations of digital representations of analog phenomena. This is why a digital picture might not perfectly capture the nuances of a real-life scene.

Importance of Sampling Rate

The choice of sampling rate directly affects the accuracy of the reconstructed signal and the potential for information loss. A faster sampling rate will capture more detail, but also requires more storage space.

Binary Bit Weights

In binary numbers, weights increase by a factor of 2 for each bit moving left, starting with a weight of 1 for the least significant bit. For example, bits 0, 1, 1, 0, 1 in a binary number have weights 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 respectively.

Binary Left Shift

A method to efficiently multiply a binary number by 2. Each left shift adds a '0' at the rightmost end, effectively doubling the value. For example, shifting 1011 (decimal 11) left by one bit results in 10110 (decimal 22).

Binary Right Shift

A method to efficiently divide a binary number by 2. Each right shift removes the rightmost bit, effectively halving the value. For example, shifting 10110 (decimal 22) right by one bit results in 1011 (decimal 11).

Signed Binary Numbers

Binary numbers where the most significant bit (MSB) represents the sign. If the MSB is '1,' the number is negative. If the MSB is '0,' the number is positive. For example, '1101' represents -5, while '0101' represents +5.
