ABSTRACT
In order to convert an analog signal into a digital signal, the analog signal must first be sampled. Sampling involves converting one value of a signal at a particular interval of time. Generally, conversions happen uniformly in time. For example, a digitizing system may convert a signal every 5
µ
s, or sample at 200 kS/s. Although it is not necessary to uniformly sample a signal, doing so provides certain benefits that will be discussed later.
