Question

Which bit coder is required to code a signal with 16 levels? A. 4-bit B. 8-bit C. 2-bit D.16-bit E. 1-bit

Answer 1

To code a signal with 16 levels, you would need a 4-bit coder.

Each bit in a binary number can represent two levels (0 or 1). Therefore, with a 4-bit coder, you can represent 2^4 = 16 different levels, which matches the requirement for coding a signal with 16 levels. The other options, 8-bit, 2-bit, 16-bit, and 1-bit coders, would not be suitable for precisely representing 16 levels.

I hope this helped!
