The purpose of this experiment is to introduce the PCM ENCODER module. This module
generates a pulse code modulated - PCM - output signal from an analog input message.
Please refer to the TIMS Advanced Modules User Manual for complete details of the
operation of this module.
In this experiment the module will be used in isolation; that is, it will not be part of a larger
system. The formatting of a PCM signal will be examined in the time domain.
The Lab Sheet, entitled PCM - decoding, will illustrate the recovery of the analog message
from the digital signal.
