A digital signal is a signal that is intended to be used in discrete increments. It is different from an analog signal which does not have any discrete value assigned to it but has the possibility of continuous values. In terms of FIRST, and specifically the Robot Controller, digital refers to a type of input where the interpreted value is either true or false (1 or 0).
