2、counter electronic devices and systems on a daily basis.In every aspect of our increasingly technological society whether it is science,engineering,medicine,music,maintenance,or even espionagethe role of electronics is large,and it is growing.In general,all of the tasks with which we shall be concer
3、ned can be classified as signal-processingSection 1 Introductiontasks.Let us explore the meaning of this term.Signal A signal is any physical variable whose magnitude or variation with time contains information.This information might involve speech and music,as in radio broadcasting,a physical quant
4、ity such as the temperature of the air in a room,or numerical data,such as the record of stock market transactions.The physical variables that can carry information in an electrical system are voltage and current.When we speak of signals,therefore,Section 1 Introductionwe refer implicitly to voltage
5、s or currents.However,most of the concepts we discuss can be applied directly to systems with different information-carrying variables.Thus,the behavior of a mechanical system(in which force and velocity are the variables)or a hydraulic system(in which pressure and flow rate are the variables)can of
6、ten be modeled or represented by an equivalent electrical system.An understanding of the behavior of electrical systems,therefore,provides a basis for understanding a much broader range of phenomena.Section 1 IntroductionAnalog and Digital signalsA signal can carry information in two different forms
7、.In an analog signal the continuous variation of the voltage or current with time carries the information.An example,in Fig.2-l,is the voltage produced by a thermocouple pair when the two junctions are at different temperatures.As the temperature difference between the two junctions varies,the magni
8、tude of the voltage across the thermocouple pair also varies.The voltage thus provides an analog representation of the temperature difference.Section 1 IntroductionThe other kind of signal is a digital signal.A digital signal is one that can take on values within two discrete ranges.Such signals are
9、 used to represent ON-OFF or YES-NO information.An ordinary household thermostat delivers a digital signal to Fig.2-1(a)An example of an analog signal;(b)Voltage-time characteristic Section 1 Introductioncontrol the furnace.When the room temperature drops below a preset value,the thermostat switch c
10、loses turning on the furnace.Once the room temperature rises high enough,the switch opens turning off the furnace.The current through the switch provides a digital representation of the temperature variation:ON equals too cold while OFF equals not too cold.Section 1 IntroductionSignal-Processing Sys
11、tems A signal-processing system is an interconnection of components and devices that can accept an input signal or a group of input signals,operate on the signals in some fashion either to extract or improve the quality of the information,and present the information as an output in the proper form a
12、t the proper time.Fig.2-2 illustrates the components in such a system.The central circles represent the two types of signal processing(digital and analog),while theSection 1 Introductionblock between the two signal-processing blocks represents the conversion of an analog signal to equivalent digital
13、 form(A/D=Analog-to-Digital)and the reverse conversion of a digital signal to the corresponding analog form(D/A=Digital-to-Analog).The remaining blocks involve inputs and outputs getting signals into and out of the processing system.Section 1 IntroductionFig.2-2 Components of a signal system Section
14、 1 Introduction Many electrical signals derived from physical systems are obtained from devices called transducers.We have already encountered an example of an analog transducer,the thermocouple pair.It converts temperature difference(the physical variable)to a voltage(the electrical variable).Gener
15、ally,a transducer is a device that converts a physical or mechanical variable to an equivalent voltage or current signal.Unlike the thermocouple example,however,most transducers require some form of electrical excitation to operate.Section 1 IntroductionThe output from a system can be in many forms,
16、depending on the use to be made of the information contained in the input signals.One can seek to display the information,either in analog form(using a meter,for example,in which the needle position indicates the size of the variable of interest)or in digital form(using a set of digital display elem
17、ents that are lit up with a number corresponding to the variable of interest).Other possibilities are to convert the output to sound energy(with a loudspeaker),or to use the output asSection 1 Introductionan input signal to another system,or to use the output as a control signal to initiate some act
