    Study Notes

    Data Types

    • Data can be classified as analog or digital.
    • Analog data represents continuous information with an infinite range of values.
    • Digital data consists of discrete values or states, with clear separations between them.

    Continuous vs. Discrete Data

    • Discrete data has finite values and can be counted.
    • Continuous data can take an infinite number of values and can change over time.

    Signals Classification

    • Signals are divided into analog and digital types.
    • Analog signals can assume an infinite number of values within a given range.
    • Digital signals have a limited number of discrete values.

    Periodic Analog Signals

    • Periodic analog signals can be simple or composite.
    • A simple periodic signal is a sine wave that cannot be broken down further.
    • A composite periodic signal combines multiple sine waves.

    Sine Wave Characteristics

    • Power fluctuations in homes can be modeled with a sine wave, commonly around 110-120 V RMS.
    • Peak voltage for this sine wave can range from 155 to 170 V, calculated as Peak Value = 2.5 × RMS Value.

    Battery Voltage

    • The voltage of a standard AA battery is approximately 1.5 V.
    • Battery dimensions are standardized at 51 mm in length and 14 mm in diameter.

    Time and Frequency Concepts

    • Frequency and period are reciprocally related; high frequency indicates rapid change over time, while low frequency indicates gradual change.
    • A signal with no change has zero frequency, and instantaneous changes imply infinite frequency.

    Phase of a Waveform

    • Phase defines the position of a waveform at time 0, impacting the signal's overall shape and behavior.

    Signal Examples and Calculations

    • Home power frequency in the U.S. is typically 60 Hz.
    • Conversion examples illustrate period and frequency measurements, such as converting 100 ms to microseconds or calculating signal frequency in kilohertz.
