Digital Technology 101: Intro, Uniform Quantisation, Sampling, SNR, etc.

AI Thread Summary
A discussion on digital technology is being initiated, focusing on key topics such as uniform quantization, sampling, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), analog to digital converters (ADCs), digital to analog converters (DACs), signal compression, source coding, and error detection and correction. The first post will be made over the weekend, inviting others to participate and share insights, particularly regarding digital to analog converters.

This semester, I have a course which is a basic introduction to digital technology. I want to start a general discussion/tutorial on this subject. More specifically, some topics which I would like to cover in this discussion are,
  • Uniform Quantisation
  • Sampling
  • Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)
  • Analog to Digital Convertors
  • Digital to Analog Convertors
  • Signal Compression and Source coding
  • Error detection and correction

I will put up my first post in the weekend when I will have some free time. Is anyone else interested?

I am rather interested in d a convertors, you can start your thread here.

I found a similar documentary in English called The Human Cost of AI: Data workers in the Global South. There is also an interview with Milagros Miceli (appearing in both documentaries) on Youtube: I also found a powerpoint presentation by the economist Uma Rani (appearing in the French documentary), AI...
