Abstract:
A demultiplexer takes a single data stream and routes it to a selected output channel, a bit like one of those old A-B printer switches we used to physically select which printer we were sending data to. In this episode, we show how to design one.

Abstract:
In this episode, we take a break from proving identities of Boolean algebra and start applying them. Why? Well, so we can build our Boolean logic circuits with fewer gates. That means they’ll be cheaper, smaller, and faster. That’s why.

Full text
Abstract:
In this episode, we visit some ancient Sumerians so we can expand our view of finger counting and see how this applies to counting with transistors. From this, we will have the basis for unsigned binary integers and the humble binary digit or bit. We also show how to calculate the upper limit to which a fixed number of transistors can count.

Abstract:
Binary can be challenging. The values tend to have a lot of digits, long sequences of ones or zeros can be difficult to distinguish, and the relative magnitudes of multiple binary values can be difficult to resolve. In this episode, we discuss a couple of the popular methods to quickly represent binary in a more human readable form.

Full text
Abstract:
This episode continues the work of the previous episode by examining the methods used to convert between decimal and binary and vice versa. We also take a look at the effects of shifting the bits of a binary number both left and right and how those operations can be used to simulate multiplication and division. Oh, and since we will be discussing a lot of different numbers, it couldn’t hurt to have a piece of paper and a pencil close by.

Abstract:
Ask a computer to store a decimal whole number in binary and it will do it without any fuss. A decimal fraction, however, that’s another thing. In this episode, we will present a method called Packed BCD that is used to accurately represent decimal values in binary by storing each digit in its own nibble.

Tarnoff, David. "Episode 2.5 – Binary Representation of Analog Values: Fitting Infinite Inside a Computer." Digital Commons @ East Tennessee State University, 2020. https://dc.etsu.edu/computer-organization-design-oer/11.

Full text
Abstract:
Computers don’t cope well with infinite, but that’s pretty much what the real world is about, limitless accuracy with as near to limitless boundaries as can be imagined. So how do we fit infinite inside the computer? That’s what this episode is about: converting analog measurements to binary with suitable accuracy. And we will do all of this with an eye to using these techniques later in our applications.
