Binary coded decimal (BCD) - Question 2
- Thread starter Hello
- Start date
The decimal is what stumps me, the numbers can be converted straight into 4 separate digits. Maybe the answer is 4 separate strings of binary numbers separated by the decimal point?
**************
Just read the other post.
4 bytes, each byte being 2 BCD numbers.
The last two bytes are the exponent, similar to resistors. For example, a 2.2KΩ resistor is 223, or 22 X 10^3. Same thing in BCD use 4 bytes (which translates into 8 BCD numbers).
