Howtosignalprocessing
A waveform that switches representing the two states of a Boolean value (0 and 1, or low and high, or false and true) is referred to as a digital signal or logic signal or binary signal when it is interpreted in terms of only two possible digits.

What do 1s and 0s represent?
In mathematics and in computing systems, a binary digit, or bit, is the smallest unit of data. Each bit has a single value of either 1 or 0, which means it can't take on any other value. Computers can represent numbers using binary code in the form of digital 1s and 0s inside the central processing unit (CPU) and RAM.
What are 1s and 0s called?
That language of 1's and 0's is called binary. Computers speak in binary because of how they are built. A computer is nothing more than a vast collection of switches. There are millions of nanoscopically small electronic switches on those oddly etched boards within the computer.
Is on and off represented by 0s and 1s?
The 0s and 1s in binary represent OFF or ON, respectively. In a transistor, a "0" represents no flow of electricity, and "1" represents electricity being allowed to flow. In this way, numbers are represented physically inside the computing device, permitting calculations.
What are 1s and 0s binary?
It's called binary code because it is made of only two symbols — 0s and 1s. (The "bi" in "binary" means two.) Everything in the computer is represented by this binary code. Every picture, movie, sound, and program that you use in a computer is just a string of 0s and 1s.
