Logic Levels
Before examining digital signals, we must define logic levels. A logic level is a voltage level that represents a defined digital state. Logic HIGH: The higher of two voltages, typically 5 volts Logic LOW: The lower of two voltages, typically 0 volts

A Sine Wave
Two signals with the same phase and frequency, but different amplitudes
Two signals with the same amplitude and phase, but different frequencies
Three sine waves with the same amplitude and frequency, but different phases
The bandwidth of a composite signal is the difference between the highest and the lowest frequencies contained in that signal.
