    A code converter is a logic circuit that converts data of one type into another type. Gray code is used to represent the position of a rotating shaft, where only one digit changes between counts. Gray code is more practical for this use case compared to traditional binary coding. Codes are used to represent discrete information symbolically.

    1.

    A code converter is a logic circuit that

    a) Inverts the given input

    b) Converts into decimal number

    c) Converts data of one type into another type

    d) None of the Mentioned

    View Answer

    Answer: c

    Explanation: A code converter is a logic circuit that changes data presented in one type of binary code to
    another type of binary code.

    2. Use the weighting factors to convert the following BCD numbers to binary:

    0101 0011 & 0010 0110 1000

    a) 01010011 001001101000

    b) 11010100 100001100000

    c) 110101 100001100

    d) 101011 001100001

    View Answer

    Answer: c

    Explanation: Firstly, convert every 4 sets of binary to decimal from the given: 0101=5, 0011=3. Then
    convert 53 to decimal, which will give 110101. Again, do the same with the next 4 set of binary digits.

    3. The primary use for Gray code is

    a) Coded representation of a shaft’s mechanical position

    b) Turning on/off software switches

    c) To represent the correct ASCII code to indicate the angular position of a shaft on rotating machinery

    d) To convert the angular position of a shaft on rotating machinery into hexadecimal code

    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: Gray code is useful because only one bit changes at a time, which is implemented easily in
    Coded representation of a shaft’s mechanical position.

    4. Code is a symbolic representation of

    a) Continuous information

    b) Discrete information

    c) Decimal information into binary

    d) Binary information into decimal

    View Answer

    Answer: a

    Explanation: Code is a symbolic representation of discrete information. Since, codes are nothing but a
    particular number, which is in integral form.

    5. One way to convert BCD to binary using the hardware approach is

    a) With MSI IC circuits

    b) With a keyboard encoder

    c) With an ALU

    d) UART

    View Answer

    Answer: a

    Explanation: One way to convert BCD to binary using the hardware approach is MSI IC (i.e. medium scale
    integration) circuits.

    6. Why is the Gray code more practical to use when coding the position of a rotating shaft?

    a) All digits change between counts

    b) Two digits change between counts

    c) Only one digit changes between counts

    d) None of the Mentioned

    View Answer

    Answer: c
    Explanation: The Gray code is more practical to use when coding the position of a rotating shaft because
    only one digit changes between counts that is reflected to the next count.

    7. Reflected binary code is also known as

    a) BCD code

    b) Binary code

    c) ASCII code

    d) Gray Code

    View Answer

    Answer: d

    Explanation: The reflected binary code is also known as gray code because one digit reflected to the next
    bit.

    8. Why do we use gray codes?

    a) To count the no of bits changes

    b) To rotate a shaft

    c) Error correction

    d) None of the Mentioned

    View Answer

    Answer: c

    Explanation: Today, Gray codes are widely used to facilitate error correction in digital communications
    such as digital terrestrial television and some cable TV systems.

    9. Earlier, reflected binary codes were applied to

    a) Binary addition

    b) 2’s complement

    c) Mathematical puzzles

    d) binary multiplication

    View Answer

    Answer: c
    Explanation: Reflected binary codes were applied to mathematical puzzles before they became known to
    engineers.

    10. The binary representation of BCD number 00101001 (decimal 29) is

    a) 0011101

    b) 0110101

    c) 1101001

    d) 0101011

    View Answer

    Answer: a

    Explanation: The given BCD number 00101001 has three 1s. So, it can be rewritten as 0000001-1,
    0001000-8, 0010100-20 and after addition, we get 0011101 as output.

    11. Convert binary number into gray code: 100101

    a) 101101

    b) 001110

    c) 110111

    d) 111001

    View Answer

    Answer: c

    Explanation: Conversion of binary number 100101 into gray code takes place in this way: Firstly, write the
    1st digit as it is from left; now add the two numbers sequentially.
