- Extra information can be added to digital signals so that errors can either be detected or
corrected.
- Digital data tends not to degrade over time
- Processing of digital information is relatively easy, either in real-time or non-real-time A
single type of media can be used to store many different types of information (such as
video, speech, audio and computer data can be stored on tape, hard-disk or DVD/CDROM).
- A digital system has a more dependable response, whereas an analogue system’s
accuracy depends on parameters such as component tolerance, temperature, power supply
variations, and so on. Analogue systems thus produce a variable response and no two
analogue systems are identical.
- Digital systems arc more adaptable and can be reprogrammed with software, Analogue
systems normally require ft change of hardware for any functional changes.
