Bit
A contraction of "binary" and "digit", a bit is a number used in a digital information system. A bit is easy to deal with in electronic terms, having only two values, 0 and 1, alternatively expressed as "off" and "on"; "low" and "high", or "absence of voltage" and "presence of voltage". Bits are commonly grouped into binary "words" or bytes.

Our Customers Say...

“When it came time to start from scratch with the studio, I had a lot of questions. The Sales Engineers I've worked with are really friendly and patient, and the guidance they provided was invaluable; they basically helped build the studio.”
