Analog Digital Signals

What is the difference between analogue and digital data?

• Analogue is continuous data, whereas digital signals have two values, 0 and 1.
• Analogue has two values 0 and 1, whereas digital is continuous data.

Analogue signals can vary in amplitude or frequency

• True

• False

The height of a wave is called its frequency.

• True

• False
