CONVERTER OF FOUR-BIT BINARY CODE TO BINARY-DECIMAL CODE Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: automation and computer engineering. SUBSTANCE: majority gates 1, 3, 4, 7 are introduced to accomplish the goal of invention. Inputs of majority gates are connected to control inputs of converter. Their outputs are connected through XOR gates 5, 6, 8 to device outputs for binary-decimal information. This results in possibility of generation of first tetrad of binary-decimal code which corresponds to digit of ones of decimal number as well as generation of right-hand digit of second tetrad which corresponds to digit of tens. This provides possibility to use this device in indication circuits for control of operations of two decimal digital indicators. EFFECT: increased functional capabilities, simplified design. 1 tbl, 1 dwg
