1. The document discusses signal conditioning functions and digital to analog conversion. 2. Main functions of signal conditioning include amplification, attenuation, excitation, and filtering to prepare analog signals for processing. 3. Digital to analog conversion involves sampling an analog signal, quantifying it based on the resolution of the analog to digital converter (ADC), and outputting a binary value for the microcontroller to read as a digital signal. The ADC's sampling rate and resolution are important aspects.
