What is a BCD to decimal decoder? The 74HC/HCT42 are BCD to decimal decoders. These decoders accept four active HIGH BCD inputs and provide 10 mutually exclusive active LOW outputs. The active LOW ...

In Part 1 of this two-part binary coded decimal (BCD) extravaganza, we introduced a bunch of bodacious concepts, including the binary (base-2) number system, binary logic, binary computers, and bits, ...

Here's a C/C++ program that converts decimal numbers ranging from 0 to 99,999 to binary and BCD formats. Using a simple algorithm in conjunction with pointer arithmetic and bitwise shifting increases ...
