You are part of new automobile design team, and are responsible for designing the sensor data collection system. The specification of the data collection system is that is must be capable of receiving data with a resolution down to 0.1% of full scale (1 part in 1000) for any given sensor. For example, suppose the driver pushes the gas pedal, the motion of which is read by an electronic sensor such that the range of motion is defined from 0 (not pressed) to 1 (fully pressed). If you want 0.1 % accuracy, you need 1000 possible data values between 0 and 1. How many bits do you need to represent data to 0.1% accuracy?
