  2. Binary-coded decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-coded_decimal

    1001 + 1000 = 10001 9 + 8 = 17 10001 is the binary, not decimal, representation of the desired result, but the most significant 1 (the "carry") cannot fit in a 4-bit binary number. In BCD as in decimal, there cannot exist a value greater than 9 (1001) per digit.

  3. Binary number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_number

    In the binary system, each bit represents an increasing power of 2, with the rightmost bit representing 2 0, the next representing 2 1, then 2 2, and so on. The value of a binary number is the sum of the powers of 2 represented by each "1" bit. For example, the binary number 100101 is converted to decimal form as follows:

  4. Binary decoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_decoder

    Binary decoder. In digital electronics, a binary decoder is a combinational logic circuit that converts binary information from the n coded inputs to a maximum of 2 n unique outputs. They are used in a wide variety of applications, including instruction decoding, data multiplexing and data demultiplexing, seven segment displays, and as address ...

  5. Double dabble - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_dabble

    Double dabble. In computer science, the double dabble algorithm is used to convert binary numbers into binary-coded decimal (BCD) notation. [1] [2] It is also known as the shift-and-add -3 algorithm, and can be implemented using a small number of gates in computer hardware, but at the expense of high latency. [3]

  6. Octet (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octet_(computing)

    1 o = 8 bits. The octet is a unit of digital information in computing and telecommunications that consists of eight bits. The term is often used when the term byte might be ambiguous, as the byte has historically been used for storage units of a variety of sizes. The term octad (e) for eight bits is no longer common. [1] [2]

  7. Binary integer decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_Integer_Decimal

    In the decimal encoding, it is encoded as a series of p decimal digits (using the densely packed decimal (DPD) encoding). This makes conversion to decimal form efficient, but requires a specialized decimal ALU to process. In the binary integer decimal ( BID) encoding, it is encoded as a binary number.

  8. EBCDIC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EBCDIC

    Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code (EBCDIC; / ˈ ɛ b s ɪ d ɪ k /) is an eight-bit character encoding used mainly on IBM mainframe and IBM midrange computer operating systems. It descended from the code used with punched cards and the corresponding six-bit binary-coded decimal code used with most of IBM's computer peripherals of ...

  9. Computer number format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_number_format

    Computer number format. A computer number format is the internal representation of numeric values in digital device hardware and software, such as in programmable computers and calculators. [1] Numerical values are stored as groupings of bits, such as bytes and words. The encoding between numerical values and bit patterns is chosen for ...
