This document provides instructions for a lab experiment to design a 4-bit Gray code converter. The objectives are to understand the basic operation of a BCD to Gray code converter and verify its truth table. The required equipment includes a digital trainer, XOR gates, OR gates, a breadboard and LEDs. It discusses Gray code, provides the truth tables for 4-bit binary and Gray codes, and derives the Boolean functions to convert between the codes. The preliminary procedure is to insert XOR gates on the breadboard, apply power, and verify the OR operation by checking LED outputs for different input combinations.

Name: ------------------------------------------------------- Roll No. --------------------------
PEFORMANCE OBJECTIVES Upon successful completion of this experiment, the student will be able to know ♦ The basic operation of BCD to Gray Code Converter. ♦ Verify the truth table of BCD to Gray code Converter.
EQUIPMENT REQUIRED ♦ Digital trainer with adapter ♦ X-OR gate (7486 2-input Quad) ♦ OR gate (7432 2-input Quad) ♦ Bread board ♦ LED
DISCUSSION
♦ CODE CONVERSION Gray belongs to a class of codes known as minimum change code, in which a number changes by only bit as it proceeds from one number to the next. Hence this code is not useful for arithmetic operations. This code finds extensive use for shaft encoders, in some types of analog-to-digital converters, etc The bit combinations 4-bit binary code and its equivalent bit combinations of gray code are listed in the table in Figure. The four bits of binary numbers are designated as A, B, C, and D, and gray code bits are designated as W, X, Y, and Z. For transformation of binary numbers to gray, A, B, C, and D are considered as inputs and W, X, Y, and Z are considered as outputs. . Four Bit Binary Inputs Four Bit Gray Code A B C D W X Y Z 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0
From Karnaugh map we get Boolean function for the outputs
W =A X = AB + A B = A ⊕B Y = BC + BC = B ⊕C Z = C D +C D = C ⊕D
