A digital signal is a physical signal that is a representation of a sequence of discrete values (a quantified discrete-time signal), for example of an arbitrary bit stream, or of a digitized (sampled and analog-to-digital converted) analog signal. The term digital signal can refer to either of the following:
A signal that is generated by means of a digital modulation method (digital passband transmission), to be transferred between modems, is in the first case considered as a digital signal, and in the second case as converted to an analog signal.

Binary data refers to data that is represented using only two possible values, typically 0 and 1. This is the fundamental language of computers, where everything is ultimately represented in binary form. On the other hand, digital data is a broader term that encompasses any data that is stored or transmitted in discrete, non-continuous values. While binary data is a specific type of digital data, digital data can also include other numeral systems like decimal or hexadecimal.
