Analogue Vs Digital Signal Processing
Reliability:
Analogue system performance degrades due to:
 Long term drift (ageing)
 Short term drift (temperature?)
 Sensitivity to voltage instability.
 Batch-to-Batch component variation.
 High discrete component count
Interconnection failures

AGC
DSP
DIGITAL FILTERS
Digital Systems:
 No short or long term drifts.
 Relative immunity to minor power supply
variations.
 Virtually identical components.
 IC’s have > 15 year lifetime
 Development costs
 System changes at design/development
stage only software changes.
 Digital system simulation is realistic.
