Conversions
Class:
- Teacher shows how to produce binary representations for the decimal numbers 6 and 3.
- Teacher shows how to convert binary to decimal and shows verifies the result 110 produces 6 and 3 produces 11.
Binary Addition
- Teacher adds 6 (110) and 3 (11) and verifies the result
Binary Subtraction
- Teacher subtracts 6 (110) and 3 (11) and verifies the result as 3 (11)
Sign And Magnitude
- Teacher shows how the fixed point system is used with the MSB used to represent the sign, 0 for +ve, 1 for –ve
Twos complement
- Show the +ve representation for 6 and 3
- Show –ve representation of 6 and 3 (Using flip_+1 and copy+1 methods)
- Copy method :
- Going from right to left, copy all digits up to and including the first 1.
- Filp the remaining bits.
- Copy method :
- Verify that 6-3 is equivalent to 6 + (-3 ) for an 8 bit two’s complement system.
In twos complement the MSB is taken to be -ve
Exercise – The Largest and Smallest magnitude twos complement numbers using 4 bits
Using a 4 bit twos complement system, what’s the
- Largest +ve number ,
- Lowest -ve number
That can be represented?
