Introduction, gates, and binary stuff Flashcards
4 Number types
- Decimal/Base 10
- Binary
- Hexadecimal
- octal
num type that we use
decimal/base 10
everything is stored in
binary
binary base
2
octal base
8
hexadecimal base
16
stuff stored in binary
- characters ( ascii )
- sound ( digitized )
- picture ( RGB )
Binary Coded Decimal notation
Binary encodings of decimal numbers where each digit is represented by a fixed number of digits, usually being 4 or 8.
convert binary to octal
group in 3s
convert binary to hexadecimal
group in 4s
convert from decimal
divide by specific base, keeping track of remainders, then write in reverse order
0 and 1 is represented by
voltage level depending on chip type
our family of chips
TTL chips
TTL chips low voltage ( 0 )
0-0.8 volts
TTL chips high voltage ( 1 )
2-5 volts
active high logic means
1 = true
0 = false
active low logic means
0 = true
1 = false
