Digital computers are distinctive in that their vehicles are digits (Piccinini 2007).
In contrast to analog computers, digital computers represent information in discrete form, generally as sequences of 0s and 1s (binary digits, or bits).
Digital computers use a binary code that is arranged in groups of eight rather than of seven digits, or bits.
The new digital teslameter system (also called Gaussmeter) incorporates a 3-axis Hall probe, analog electronics based on the spinning-current technique, 24-bit analog-to-digital converter, computer, and 7-digit touch-screen display.
