  2. Binary-coded decimal - Wikipedia

    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. To correct this, 6 (0110) is added to the total, and then the result is treated as two nibbles:

  3. Bit numbering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_numbering

    This table illustrates an example of an 8 bit signed decimal value using the two's complement method. The MSb most significant bit has a negative weight in signed integers, in this case -2 7 = -128. The other bits have positive weights. The lsb (least significant bit) has weight 2 0 =1. The signed value is in this case -128+2 = -126.

    With such notation (constraints on parameterized types using information object sets), generic ASN.1 tools/libraries can automatically encode/decode/resolve references within a document. ^ The primary format is binary, a json encoder is available. [10] ^ The primary format is binary, but a text format is available.

  5. Positional notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positional_notation

    When converting from binary to octal every 3 bits relate to one and only one octal digit. Hexadecimal, decimal, octal, and a wide variety of other bases have been used for binary-to-text encoding, implementations of arbitrary-precision arithmetic, and other applications. For a list of bases and their applications, see list of numeral systems.

  6. Binary integer decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_Integer_Decimal

    A binary encoding is inherently less efficient for conversions to or from decimal-encoded data, such as strings (ASCII, Unicode, etc.) and BCD. A binary encoding is therefore best chosen only when the data are binary rather than decimal. IBM has published some unverified performance data. [2]

  7. Computer number format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_number_format

    Similar binary floating-point formats can be defined for computers. There is a number of such schemes, the most popular has been defined by Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The IEEE 754-2008 standard specification defines a 64 bit floating-point format with: an 11-bit binary exponent, using "excess-1023" format.

  8. ARINC 429 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARINC_429

    The ARINC 429 unit of transmission is a fixed-length 32-bit frame, which the standard refers to as a 'word'. The bits within an ARINC 429 word are serially identified from Bit Number 1 to Bit Number 32 [4] or simply Bit 1 to Bit 32. The fields and data structures of the ARINC 429 word are defined in terms of this numbering.

  9. Binary number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_number

    The bits of the binary number are used one by one, starting with the most significant (leftmost) bit. Beginning with the value 0, the prior value is doubled, and the next bit is then added to produce the next value. This can be organized in a multi-column table. For example, to convert 10010101101 2 to decimal:
