What are the 4 an invalid BCD code?

BCD code isn't valid for these integers , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 i.e if these integers ae converted to binary code they 'd be called wrong BCD


Why 8421 is self complementary code?

Why is BCD code called a weighted code?

A: A Binary code represent a binary number 0.1.2.4.8. etc. that is why it is called a weighted number


What is the difference between weighted and non weighted codes?

what is weighted codes: The decimal value of a code is obtained summing up the positional values. weghted binary code s are those which obey positional weighting principle. each position of number represents a specific weight. There are millions of weighted code The most common one is 8421 Non weighted codes: This codes are not positionaly weghted. each position with in the binary no is not assgned to afixed value.Examples of nonweghted code is ASCCI, GREY CODE, EBCDIC CODE etc


Examples of weighted and non weighted codes?

Weighted codes assign different significance to each digit in a number representation, such as 8421 BCD code assigns weights of 8, 4, 2, and 1 respectively to each bit. In contrast, non-weighted codes like Gray code do not follow a positional weight pattern, where only one bit changes at a time when moving from one value to another to reduce errors in analog-to-digital conversion systems.


Is 8421 self complementary code?

Yes , it is a self complementry code but not a weighted code


What is a 4 BCD code?

A 4 BCD code is a 4 decimal-digit BCD code, thus a 16 digit binary-code. You take the decimal number 3545. It's BCD code is 0011 0101 0100 0101 where every 4 bits represent a decimal digit.


What does a BCD invalid code detector do?

How i can Design a BCD-to-excess-3 code converter with a BCD-to-decimal decoder and four OR gates?

i dont know 1001+1001 - Constructing a BCD-to-excess-3-code converter with a 4-bitt adder we know that the excess-3 code digit is obtained by adding three to the corresponding BCD digit. To change the circuit to an excess-3-to-BCD-code converter we feed BCD-code to the 4-bit adder as the first operand. Then feed constant 3 as the second operand. The output is the corresponding excess-3 code. To make it a BCD to excess-3 converter, we feed the 2's complement of 3 as the second operand. - Constructing a BCD-to-excess-3-code converter with a 4-bitt adder we know that the excess-3 code digit is obtained by adding three to the corresponding BCD digit.
