Digital technology uses digital data — sets of discrete values, typically the numbers 1 and 0 — to represent information. This is in contrast to analog technology that uses continuous values to represent data. All modern computer and electronic equipment are digital because they use and manipulate information using the digits 1 and 0. Digital technology has largely replaced slower analog systems due to its numerous security, speed and error control advantages. Error Control, Detection and Correction Digital technology provides greater capacity to detect and control errors. Although digital systems provide greater immunity to noise than analog systems, they are still susceptible to a certain
