All recorded data were analog-to-digital converted using 1 kHz sampling rate and stored in a personal computer.
As mentioned earlier, microarray data is "analog" since expression levels are represented as continuous hybridization signal intensities.
It is clear that sequencing-based transcriptome analysis in many ways is superior to microarrays, since sequencing-based method is digital, highly accurate, and easy-to-perform, whereas the microarray-generated data are analog and less accurate, and their acquisition requires specific probe and array designs.
Data converters are analog semiconductors used to convert signals from analog to digital and back again.
The data were digitized with an analog-to-digital converter (Digidata 1321A, Molecular Devices), stored on a personal computer using a data acquisition program (Clampex version 10, Molecular Devices) and analyzed using a software package Clampfit version 10 (Molecular Devices).
Initially the analog data were not favorable to the flow of water as observed in some of the wells.
Data were digitized with 16-bit analog to digital converter (Digidata 1322A, Axon Instruments).
As a follow-up, KOOS and visual analog pain data were also analyzed to identify differences between treatment days 5 and 7 in each treatment option, via a within-subject repeated measure analysis of variance, (P ≤ 0.05).
Data were recorded with 24-bit analog-to-digital (A/D) wireless recorders with 100 samples per second.
Finally, serial digital data is converted to analog data by using D/A block.
Data were digitized with a 12 bit analog-to-digital converter and recorded in a digital format that we developed (Endymion, 1993 2012, Sleep laboratory, Erasme Academic Hospital – ULB) to be read and stored in the EDF file format [ 45].
