Given A=46 and B=35 represent them in binary and perform A-B using 1's complement method. [5]

- $A = 46$ (minuend) - $B = 35$ (subtrahend) - Operation: $A - B$ using 1's complement. $46{10}$: $32+8+4+2 = 46 \Rightarrow 0010\,1110$ $35{10}$: $32+2+1 = 35 \Rightarrow 0010\,0011$ Decimal Binary (8-bit) ------------------------ $A = 46$ $0010\,1110$ $B ...

Question

Perform the following operations:

a. $(0111010)_2 - (110011)_2$ using 2's complement

b. $(89344){10} - (98654){10}$ using 9's complement

[2.5+2.5]

- Part (a): $(0111010)2 - (110011)2$ using 2's complement - Part (b): $(89344){10} - (98654){10}$ using 9's complement --- - Minuend: $0111010$ (7 bits) - Subtrahend: $110011 \to 0110011$ (padded to 7 bits) 1's complement (flip bits): $$0110011 \to 1001100$...

Carry out the following tasks:a. Perform 2's complement subtraction of 010110 - 100101b. Represent decimal number 10 in its BCD form [5]

- Part a: Subtraction $010110 - 100101$ (both 6-bit binary numbers) - Part b: Represent decimal 10 in BCD --- - Minuend $A = 010110$ - Subtrahend $B = 100101$ 1's complement (invert bits): $$100101 \rightarrow 011010$$ Add 1: $$011010 + 1 = 011011$$ So 2's ...

Carry out the following tasks: a. Perform 1's complement subtraction of 10101-100101 b. Represent decimal number 0.125 into its binary form [2.5+2.5]

- Part (a): Subtraction $10101 - 100101$ using 1's complement method - Part (b): Convert decimal $0.125$ to binary --- - Minuend: $10101 = 21{10}$ - Subtrahend: $100101 = 37{10}$ Pad minuend to 6 bits: - Minuend: $010101$ - Subtrahend: $100101$ Flip all bit...

Write short notes on (Any Two): Negative Logic, CMOS, EBCDIC [5]

--- Definition: In digital systems, logic levels are represented by two voltage levels. The assignment of these voltage levels to logic 0 and logic 1 defines the logic convention used. - In Positive Logic: The higher voltage level represents logic 1 and the...
