GRAY CODE(BINARY CODES FROM DIGITAL ELECTRONICS)

This is a variable weighted code and is cyclic. This means that it is arranged so that every transition from one value to the next value involves only one bit change. The gray code is sometimes referred to as reflected binary, because the first eight values compare with those of the last 8 values, but in reverse order.

Decimal	Binary	Gray
0	0000	0000
1	0001	0001
2	0010	0011
3	0011	0010
4	0100	0110
5	0101	0111
6	0110	0101
7	0111	0100
8	1000	1100
9	1001	1101
10	1010	1111
11	1011	1110
12	1100	1010
13	1101	1011
14	1110	1001
15	1111	1000

The gray code is often used in mechanical applications such as shaft encoders.
Modulo 2 Arithmetic
This is binary addition with the carry ignored.
Converting Gray Code to Binary
A. write down the number in gray code
B. the most significant bit of the binary number is the most significant bit of the gray code
C. add (using modulo 2) the next significant bit of the binary number to the next significant bit of the gray coded number to obtain the next binary bit
D. repeat step C till all bits of the gray coded number have been added modulo 2
the resultant number is the binary equivalent of the gray number

Example, convert 1101101 in gray code to binary

Gray Binary
1. 1101101
2. 1101101 1 copy down the msb
3. 1101101 10 1 modulo2 1 = 0
4. 1101101 100 0 modulo2 0 = 0
3/4 1101101 1001 0 modulo2 1 = 1
3/4 1101101 10010 1 modulo2 1 = 0
3/4 1101101 100100 0 modulo2 0 = 0
3/4 1101101 1001001 0 modulo2 1 = 1

the answer is 1001001

3/4 1001001 1101101 0 modulo2 1 = 1

The answer is 1101101

Excess 3 Gray Code
In many applications, it is desirable to have a code that is BCD as well as unit distance. A unit distance code derives its name from the fact that there is only one bit change between two consecutive numbers. The excess 3 gray code is such a code, the values for zero and nine differ in only 1 bit, and so do all values for successive numbers.
Outputs from linear devices or angular encoders may be coded in excess 3 gray code to obtain multi-digit BCD numbers.

Decimal Excess 3 Gray
0 0010
1 0110
2 0111
3 0101
4 0100
5 1100
6 1101
7 1111
8 1110
