1 INTRODUCTION The Series 2 and 3 Dig ital Audio Adapters are I BM AT com patible add-on boards w hich convert high fidelity analog sig nals to digital data f or st orage to, and ret rieval from, disk . The Series 2 and 3 adapter s sample two channels of audio f rom 7.
2 In essence, dig ital audio is a technological process whereby an analog audio signal ( produced when sound wav es in the air excite a microphone) is first converted into a continuous str eam of num- bers (or dig its).
3 That' s about five billion bits per hour, w hich is why y ou' ll need at least an 800 Megabyte hard disk t o record an hour of compact disk quality music. To visualize the analog-to- digital conversion process, ref er to Fig - ure 1. At the t op is one cy cle of an analog input signal wave.
4 the quantizer generat es a continuous "bit st ream" which repre- sents the q uant ized sig nal. T he continuous stream of digital audio infor mation is converted int o a digitally modulated signal using a technique k now n as linear pulse code m odulat ion.
