Code conversions

Code converters

Code conversion is used to change the data present in one type


of binary code to another type of binary code.

Some of the conversions are

Binary to Gray code conversion


Gray to Binary code conversion
Binary to Gray code conversion

The Gray code is non-weighted code, as the position of bit does


not contain any weight. The Gray code is a reflective digital code
which has the special property that any two subsequent numbers
codes differ by only one bit. This is also called a unit- distance code.
The generation of 4-bit Gray code can be calculated by
using formula.
G1 = B1
G2 = B1ÅB2
G3 = B2ÅB3
G4 = B3ÅB4
The most significant bit (MSB) of the Gray code is always
equal to the MSB of the given binary code other bits of the output
Gray code can be obtained by Xoring binary code bit at that index
and previous index.
The binary to Gray code conversions can be done by using
xoring logic gate. A four-bit binary code converter is shown above.
The input is binary code and the output is equivalent Gray code.
A four-bit binary to Gray code conversion table is as shown below.

The circuit for Binary to Gray code conversion is
Gray to binary code conversion

In Gray to binary conversion, the input is Gray code and output


is its equivalent binary code.
The generation of four-bit binary equivalent code can be
calculated by using formula.
B1 = G1
B2 = G2 Å B1
B3 = G3 Å B2
B4 = G4 Å B3
 The MSB of binary code is similar to the MSB of Gray code.
 To get next bit, use the xoring operation among the MSB of
binary to the next bit of the Gray code.
 Similarly, to get the third bit, it uses the xoring operation
among the second bit to the third MSB of the Gray code and
so on.
 The Gray to binary conversion method can be done by using
xoring logic gate.
 A four-bit Gray to binary code converter is as shown below.
