1.   The six data bits of a character are divided into two zone bits and four numeric bits.

2.   As you digital music buffs know, a key measure of recording quality is the number of stored data bits per second of music.

3.   ADSL modems can download millions of data bits per second over a standard phone line.

4.   On the Internet, stickiness has more to do with collecting valuable personal information about consumers and holding their attention than with storing their data bits.

5.   Similarly, the Benthos modem can receive acoustical pulses originating from bases on the shore and convert them back into data bits that can be downloaded into a PC.

6.   TCI will also distribute to its markets new compression software that can compress digital signals from satellites into digital data bits.

7.   The carrier is switched through four states, and the pattern of switching conveys the data bits.

8.   The ones and zeroes of the data bits must be turned into black and white squares, using a type of liquid crystal display.

9.   These make the signal power fluctuate, randomly adding or removing data bits.

10.   Using specialized software, it encodes data bits from a PC inside the sub and turns them into acoustical pulses that are sent out through the ocean.
