Why do we use excess 3 code?

The primary advantage of excess-3 coding over non-biased coding is that a decimal number can be nines' complemented (for subtraction) as easily as a binary number can be ones' complemented: just by inverting all bits.

What is the BCD code for 1101 excess 3 code?

Therefore, subtraction by the method of complement addition is more direct in the XS-3 code than in 8421 BCD code. Like, BCD code, it also has six invalid states which are: 0000, 0001, 0010, 1101, 1110 and 1111.

Is BCD a weighted code?

In other words, the BCD is a weighted code and the weights used in binary coded decimal code are 8, 4, 2, 1, commonly called the 8421 code as it forms the 4-bit binary representation of the relevant decimal digit.

What is BCD and GREY code?

Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) is a way to store the decimal numbers in binary form. The number representation requires 4 bits to store every decimal digit (from 0 to 9). Since there are 10 different combinations of BCD, we need at least a 4-bit Gray Code to create sufficient number of these combinations.

How do I change my BCD code from excess 3?

PLC program to implement Excess-3 to BCD Conversion
1. BCD can be derived from Excess-3 code by reversing the process used in conversion of BCD to Excess-3 code which is to subtract 0011 or 0011 0011 from given BCD number.
2. For example, Decimal number 12 is represented as 0100 0101 in Excess-3 code.
3. Write the truth table relating Excess-3 and BCD.

What are the advantages of gray code?

In Gray code, if we go from one decimal number to next, only one bit of the gray code changes. Because of this feature, an amount of switching is minimized and the reliability of the switching systems is improved. Advantage of grey code over binary is only one-bit changes for each step.
