Positional-value systems: decimal, binary, octal, etc..

Positional-Value System
The value of a digit (digit from Latin word for finger) depends on its position

base point or radix We write: ( 1 0 1 1 1 1 . 0 0 1 )2 Digits are called bits

Binary Representation
The basis of all digital data is binary representation. Binary - means two
1, 0 True, False Hot, Cold On, Off

We must be able to handle more than just values for real world problems
1, 0, 56 True, False, Maybe Hot, Cold, LukeWarm, Cool On, Off, Leaky

Number Systems
To talk about binary data, we must first talk about number systems The decimal number system (base 10) you should be familiar with!
A digit in base 10 ranges from 0 to 9. A digit in base 2 ranges from 0 to 1 (binary number system). A digit in base 2 is also called a bit. A digit in base R can range from 0 to R-1 A digit in Base 16 can range from 0 to 16-1 (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F). Use letters A-F to represent values 10 to 15. Base 16 is also called Hexadecimal or just Hex.

Positional Number Systems

The traditional number system is called a positional number system. A number is represented as a string of digits. Each digit position has a weight assoc. with it. Numbers value = a weighted sum of the digits

Positional Notation more examples

Value of number is determined by multiplying each digit by a weight and then summing. The weight of each digit is a POWER of the BASE and is determined by position. 953.78 = 9 x 102 + 5 x 101 + 3 x 100 + 7 x 10-1 + 8 x 10-2 = 900 + 50 + 3 + .7 + .08 = 953.78 decimal % 1011.11 = 1x23 + 0x22 + 1x21 + 1x20 + 1x2-1 + 1x2-2 = 8 + 0 + 2 + 1 + 0.5 + 0.25 = 11.75 binary $ A2F = 10x162 + 2x161 + 15x160 = 10 x 256 + 2 x 16 + 15 x 1 = 2560 + 32 + 15 = 2607

hex

Base 10, Base 2, Base 16

The textbook uses subscripts to represent different bases (ie. A2F16 , 953.7810, 1011.112 ) We will use special symbols to represent the different bases. The default base will be decimal, no special symbol for base 10.

The $ will be used for base 16 ( $A2F)

The % will be used for base 2 (%10101111)

If ALL numbers on a page are the same base (ie, all in base 16 or base 2 or whatever) then no symbols will be used and a statement will be present that will state the base (ie, all numbers on this page are in base 16).

Common Powers
2-3 = 0.125 2-2 = 0.25 2-1 = 0.5 20 = 1 21 = 2 22 = 4 23 = 8 24 = 16 25 =32 26 = 64 27 = 128 28 = 256 29 = 512 210 = 1024 211 = 2048 212 = 4096

160 = 1 = 20 161 = 16 = 24 162 = 256 = 28 163 = 4096 = 212

210 = 1024 = 1 K 220 = 1048576 = 1 M (1 Megabits) = 1024 K = 210 x 210 230 = 1073741824 = 1 G (1 Gigabits)

Octal and Hexadecimal (Hex) Numbers

Octal = base 8 Hexadecimal = base 16
Use A F to represent the values 10 through 16 in each position.

Usefulness of Octal and Hex Numbers

Useful for representing multi-bit binary numbers because their radices are integer multiples of 2. 10 0101 1010 1111 . 1011 1112 = 2 5 A F . B E16

Decimal to Hex Conversions

Convert 53 to Hex 53/16 = 3, rem = 5 3 /16 = 0 , rem = 3 53 = $ 35 = 3 x 161 + 5 x 160 = 48 + 5 = 53

Hex (base 16) to Binary Conversion

Each Hex digit represents 4 bits. To convert a Hex number to Binary, simply convert each Hex digit to its four bit value. Hex Digits to binary: $ 0 = % 0000 $ 1 = % 0001 $2 = % 0010 $3 = % 0011 $4 = % 0100 $5 = % 0101 $6 = % 0110 $7 = % 0111 $8 = % 1000 Hex Digits to binary (cont): $ 9 = % 1001 $ A = % 1010 $ B = % 1011 $ C = % 1100 $ D = % 1101 $ E = % 1110 $ F = % 1111

Conversions: Hex to Binary, Binary to Hex

$ A2F = % 1010 0010 1111 $ 345 = % 0011 0100 0101 Hex to Binary conversion

Binary to Hex is just the opposite, create groups of 4 bits starting with least significant bits. If last group does not have 4 bits, then pad with zeros for unsigned numbers. % 1010001 = % 0101 0001 = $ 51 Binary to hex conversion

Padded with a zero

A Trick!
If faced with a large binary number that has to be converted to decimal, we first convert the binary number to HEX, then convert the HEX to decimal. Less work! % 110111110011 = % 1101 1111 0011 = $ D F 3 = 13 x 162 + 15 x 161 + 3x160 = 13 x 256 + 15 x 16 + 3 x 1 = 3328 + 240 + 3 = 3571

Of course, you can also use the binary, hex conversion feature on your calculator. You can use calculators on exam

Bah! I thought we were talking about Binary DATA!!!

Yah, we were!

How many binary DIGITS does it take to represent our data??

Binary Codes
One Binary Digit (one bit) can take on values 0, 1. We can represent TWO values: (0 = hot, 1 = cold), (1 = True, 0 = False), (1 = on, 0 = off). Two Binary digits (two bits) can take on values of 00, 01, 10, 11. We can represent FOUR values: (00 = hot, 01 = warm, 10 = cool, 11 = cold). Three Binary digits (three bits) can take on values of 000, 001, 010, 011, 100, 101, 110, 111. We can represent 8 values 000 = Black, 001 = Red, 010 = Pink, 011 = Yellow, 100 = Brown, 101 = Blue, 110 = Green , 111 = White.

Binary Codes (cont.)

N bits (or N binary Digits) can represent 2N different values. (for example, 4 bits can represent 24 or 16 different values) N bits can take on unsigned decimal values from 0 to 2N-1. Codes usually given in tabular form.

Conversion of Any Base to Decimal

Converting from ANY base to decimal is done by multiplying each digit by its weight and summing. Binary to Decimal % 1011.11 = 1x23 + 0x22 + 1x21 + 1x20 + 1x2-1 + 1x2-2 = 8 + 0 + 2 + 1 + 0.5 + 0.25 = 11.75 Hex to Decimal $ A2F = 10x162 + 2x161 + 15x160 = 10 x 256 + 2 x 16 + 15 x 1 = 2560 + 32 + 15 = 2607

Conversion ( ) I

Decimal-to-Radix-r Conversions
Radix-r-to-decimal conversions are easy since we do arithmetic in decimal. However, decimal-to-radix-r conversions using decimal arithmetic is harder. To do the latter conversion, we convert the integer and fractional parts separately and add the results afterwards.

Convert ( ) 10
Integer part:

( )r

Divide the number and all successive quotients by r accumulate the remainders

Fractional part:
Multiply the number and successive fractions by r accumulate the integers

Conversion of Decimal Integer To ANY Base

Divide Number N by base R until quotient is 0. Remainder at EACH step is a digit in base R, from Least Significant digit to Most significant digit. Convert 53 to binary Least Significant Digit 53/2 = 26, rem = 1 26/2 = 13, rem = 0 13/2 = 6 , rem = 1 6 /2 = 3, rem = 0 3/2 = 1, rem = 1 1/2 = 0, rem = 1 Most Significant Digit 53 = % 110101 = 1x25 + 1x24 + 0x23 + 1x22 + 0x21 + 1x20 = 32 + 16 + 0 + 4 + 0 + 1 = 53

Decimal-to-Radix-r Conversions: Integer Part

Successively divide number by r, taking remainder as result. Example: Convert 5710 to binary.
57 / 2 = 28 remainder 1 (LSB)
/2 = 14 remainder 0 /2 = 7 remainder 0 Answer: 1110012

/2 = 3 remainder 1
/2 = 1 remainder 1 /2 = 0 remainder 1 (MSB)

Decimal-to-Radix-r Conversions: Fractional Part

Successively multiply number by r, taking integer part as result and chopping off integer part before next iteration. May be unending! Example: convert .310 to binary.
.3 * 2 = .6 integer part = 0 .6 * 2 = 1.2 integer part = 1 .2 * 2 = .4 integer part = 0

Answer = .01001

.4 * 2 = .8 integer part = 0
.8 * 2 = 1.6 integer part = 1 .6 * 2 = 1.2 integer part = 1, etc.

More Conversion methods for common radices

Least Significant Digit Most Significant Digit

53 = % 110101

Most Significant Digit (has weight of 25 or 32). For base 2, also called Most Significant Bit (MSB). Always LEFTMOST digit.

Least Significant Digit (has weight of 20 or 1). For base 2, also called Least Significant Bit (LSB). Always RIGHTMOST digit.

Binary Data in your life

The computer screen on your Win 98 PC can be configured for different resolutions. One resolution is 600 x 800 x 8, which means that you have 600 dots vertically x 800 dots horizontally, with each dot using 8 bits to take on 256 different colors. (actually, a dot is called a pixel).

Need 8 bits to represent 256 colors ( 28 = 256). Total number of bits needed to represent the screen is then:
600 x 800 x 8 = 3,840,000 bits (or just under 4 Mbits) Your video card must have at least this much memory on it. 1 Mbits = 1024 x 1024 = 210 x 210 = 220 . 1 Kbits = 1024 = 210.

EXPLAIN Existence of two zeros!

Signed-magnitude representation
Also called, sign-and-magnitude representation A number consists of a magnitude and a symbol representing the sign Usually 0 means positive, 1 negative
Sign bit Usually the entire number is represented with 1 sign bit to the left, followed by a number of magnitude bits

Machine arithmetic with signedmagnitude representation

Takes several steps to add a pair of numbers
Examine signs of the addends If same, add magnitudes and give the result the same sign as the operands If different, must
Compare magnitude of the two operands Subtract smaller number from larger Give the result the sign of the larger operand

For this reason the signed-magnitude representation is not as popular as one might think because of its naturalness

Complement number systems

Negates a number by taking its complement instead of negating the sign Exact meaning of taking its complement is defined in various ways will see Not natural for humans, but better for machine arithmetic Will describe 2 complement number systems
Radix complement very popular in real computers Diminished radix-complement not very useful, may skip or not spend much time on it

Radix-complement number representation

Must first decide how many bits to represent the number say n. Complement of a number = rn number Example: 4-bit decimal:
Original number = 3524 10s complement = 10000-3524 = 6476

0 and positive numbers: 0000-4999 Negative numbers: 5000-9999, where 9999 is minus 1.

Twos-complement representation
Just radix-complement when radix = 2 Used a lot in computers and other digital arithmetic circuits 0 and positive numbers: leftmost bit = 0 Negative numbers: leftmost bit = 1 To find a numbers complement just flip all the bits and add 1 See graphical view Fig. 2.3, p. 40.

Twos-Comp Addition and Subtraction Rules

Starting from 1000 (-8) on up, each successive 2s comp number all the way to 0111 (+7) can be obtained by adding 1 to the previous one, ignoring any carries beyond the 4th bit position Since addition is just an extension of ordinary counting, 2s comp numbers can be added by ordinary binary addition! No different cases based on operands signs! Overflow possible
Occurs if result is out of range To detect happens if operands are the same sign but sum is a different sign of that of the operands

DECIMAL CODES

Codes for Decimal Digits

There are even codes for representing decimal digits. These codes use 4-bits for EACH decimal digits; it is NOT the same as converting from decimal to binary. BCD Code 0 = % 0000 1 = % 0001 2 = % 0010 3 = % 0011 4 = % 0100 5 = % 0101 6 = % 0110 7 = % 0111 8 = % 1000 9 = % 1001 In BCD code, each decimal digit simply represented by its binary equivalent. 96 = % 1001 0110 = $ 96 (BCD code) Advantage: easy to convert Disadvantage: takes more bits to store a number: 255 = % 1111 1111 = $ FF (binary code) 255 = % 0010 0101 0101 = $ 255 (BCD code) takes only 8 bits in binary, takes 12 bits in BCD.

Binary code for decimal numbers

Any encoding needs at least 4 bits/decimal digit BCD (8421), a weighted code Packed BCD 2421 code
Self-complementing: the code for the 9s comp of any digit may be obtained by complementing the individual bits of the digits code word

Excess 3
Not a weighted code, but is also self-complementing Since code follows standard binary counting sequence, standard binary counters can easily be made to count in excess-3

Biquinary code
Uses more than 4 bits First 2 bits indicate whether the number is in the range 0-4 or 5-0
One-hot

Last 5 bits indicate which of the five numbers in the selected range is represented
Also one-hot

Advantage: error-detection property. If any 1 bit in a code word is accidentally changed to the opposite value, the resulting code word doesnt represent a decimal digit at all flagged as error.

Codes for Characters

Also need to represent Characters as digital data. The ASCII code (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a 7-bit code for Character data. Typically 8 bits are actually used with the 8th bit being zero or used for error detection (parity checking). 8 bits = 1 Byte. A = % 01000001 = $41 & = % 00100110 = $26 7 bits can only represent 27 different values (128). This enough to represent the Latin alphabet (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, punctuation marks, some symbols like $), but what about other symbols or other languages?

UNICODE
UNICODE is a 16-bit code for representing alphanumeric data. With 16 bits, can represent 216 or 65536 different symbols. 16 bits = 2 Bytes per character.

This is also called a thumbwheel code because a thumbwheel for choosing a decimal digit can only change to an adjacent value (4 to 5 to 6, etc) with each click of the thumbwheel. This allows the binary output of the thumbwheel to only change one bit at a time; this can help reduce circuit complexity and also reduce signal noise.

Multiplication and Division Intro

Binary multiplication
Grammar school method for decimal: add a list of shifted multiplicands computed according to the digits of the multiplier Same method can be used in binary For two unsigned operands, the only possible values of the multiplier digits are 0 and 1
Thus its trivial to form the shifted multiplicands

Binary multiplication in binary on a machine

More convenient to add each shifted multiplicand as it is created to a partial product Will do an example. In general when we multiply an n-bit number by an m-bit number, the result requires at most n+m bits to express The shift-and-add algorithm requires m partial products and additions to obtain result, but the 1st addition is trivial (adding to 0)
