BCD To Excess-3 Code Converter

This document describes a BCD to excess-3 code converter circuit. It contains the following key points: 1. The excess-3 code represents decimal digits as their value plus 3, allowing numbers to exceed 9 without carrying. 2. The circuit uses 4 full adders, switches, and logic gates to convert 4-bit BCD input to a 4-bit excess-3 output according to the given truth table and logic functions. 3. Advantages of the excess-3 code are that it is self-complementary, uses biased representation, and simplifies arithmetic operations by avoiding limitations on digit values.

BCD TO EXCESS-3 CODE CONVERTER

Excess-3 code:
The excess 3 code is an important BCD code. It is mainly
used for arithmetic operations. It can add two decimal
numbers even if their sum exceeds nine. It simplifies
operations of arithmetic. It’s a way to represent decimal digits,
and each value equals the decimal digit value plus 3.

Components:
1. Switch Module (signal device)
2. Full adder (4)
3. Power Supply, 5V/DC stab.
4. Grid panel for circuit construction
5. Connection leads.

Operational Description of BCD to excess-3 code


converter:
The Excess-3 code can be calculated by adding 3 to BCD

Gate Diagram:
advantages of excess-3 code which make it
required to use:
1. These codes are self-complementary.
2. These codes use biased representation.
3. The excess-3 code has no limitation, so that it considerably
simplifies arithmetic operations.
4. The codes 0000 and 1111 can cause a fault in the
transmission line. The excess-3 code doesn't use these
codes and gives an advantage for memory organization.
5. These codes are usually unweighted binary decimal codes.
6. This code has a vital role in arithmetic operations. It is
because it resolves deficiencies which are encountered
when we use the 8421 BCD code for adding two decimal
digits whose sum is greater than 9.
