Summary

edit

An example of 4-bit pulse code modulation (16 different binary-coded possibilities) showing quantization and sampling of a signal (red). Generated by myself using Inkscape to heavily modify gnuplot output.


See: 4-bit-linear-PCM.svg

Details

Generated curve and scale with the following gnuplot script:

 
This plot was created with Gnuplot.
