your just being silly. all that picture shows is EMI causing noise on the signal.

That's true. And in this case digital is superior because we haven't lost the low/high signal, but the analog is all fuzzed up. :lol:

thats true if your transmitting serial data. as in bit depth of 1. 1 bit. so no I dont think that has anything to do with it. but it does prove that expensive HDMI cables are a scam.

Yes.

Also I'm used to digital logic levels, so not even serial communication, just whether the pin is high or low. And debouncing that stuff.

Had a long talk the other night at the Makerspace about building things back in the day from quad-NAND gate chips, like adders, multiplexers, even a tiny 4-bit CPU for one class project that was a huge rat's nest of wires.

I hate to say those were my glory days :lol:

Nowadays we just throw an Arduino on there and we have millions times more possibilities than if we had tried to do something with discrete chips. :cry:

the new hipster term is lunetta. its a lot of fun but I haven't got past the 555/556 yet. my sequencer chips were SMD when they arrived :cry: :cry: :cry:

here is probably the most comprehensive source of information

We recently built a Cacophonator at the MKE Makerspace, which is a bunch of hex inverter logic chips. Sounds crazy.
