The input to an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) consists of a voltage that varies among a theoretically infinite number of values. Examples are sine waves, the waveforms representing human speech, and the signals from a conventional television camera. The output of the ADC, in contrast, has defined levels or states. The number of states is almost always a power of two -- that is, 2, 4, 8, 16, etc.
Demerit points The Demerit Points Scheme is a national program that allocates penalty points (demerits) for a range of driving offences. The scheme is designed to encourage safe and responsible driving. Along with financial penalties, demerit points provide a strong incentive to drive within the law.
Once you accumulate 12 demerit points in a 12-month period on your Wisconsin driving history report, your driver's license will get suspended. Points on a Department of Transportation driving record can devalue a job application, impair a bank installment plan or increase a car insurance premium.
