  1. Chapter 4: The Building Blocks: Binary Numbers, Boolean Logic, and Gates Invitation to Computer Science, Java Version, Second Edition

  2. Objectives In this chapter, you will learn about: • The binary numbering system • Boolean logic and gates • Building computer circuits • Control circuits Invitation to Computer Science, Java Version, Second Edition

  3. Introduction • Chapter 4 focuses on hardware design (also called logic design) • How to represent and store information inside a computer • How to use the principles of symbolic logic to design gates • How to use gates to construct circuits that perform operations such as adding and comparing numbers, and fetching instructions Invitation to Computer Science, Java Version, Second Edition

  4. The Binary Numbering System • A computer’s internal storage techniques are different from the way people represent information in daily lives • Information inside a digital computer is stored as a collection of binary data Invitation to Computer Science, Java Version, Second Edition

  5. Binary Representation of Numeric and Textual Information • Binary numbering system • Base-2 • Built from ones and zeros • Each position is a power of 2 1101 = 1 x 23 + 1 x 22 + 0 x 21 + 1 x 20 • Decimal numbering system • Base-10 • Each position is a power of 10 3052 = 3 x 103 + 0 x 102 + 5 x 101 + 2 x 100 Invitation to Computer Science, Java Version, Second Edition

  6. Figure 4.2 Binary-to-Decimal Conversion Table Invitation to Computer Science, Java Version, Second Edition

  7. Binary Representation of Numeric and Textual Information (continued) • Representing integers • Decimal integers are converted to binary integers • Given k bits, the largest unsigned integer is 2k - 1 • Given 4 bits, the largest is 24-1 = 15 • Signed integers must also represent the sign (positive or negative) Invitation to Computer Science, Java Version, Second Edition

  8. 10 347 • 34 7 • 3 4 • 0 3 Converting from base 10 to base 2 • Note that the individual digits of an integer can be obtained by repeatedly dividing it by 10 and recording the successive remainders, for example: • Given a positive base 10 integer, converting to base 2 can be done by repeatedly dividing the integer by 2 and recording the successive remainders, which will be 0 or 1. The sequence written in the reverse order of how they were generated is the base 2 representation of the integer. Invitation to Computer Science, Java Version, Second Edition

  9. Converting from base 10 to base 2 • For example, suppose we wish to convert 343 to base 2. • The repeated division and remainders can be displayed in a table with the rightmost column listing the remainders. • Thus, 34310 = 1010101112. Invitation to Computer Science, Java Version, Second Edition

  10. Converting from base 2 to base 10 • Given a positive base 2 integer, converting to base 10 can be done by multiplying each of the bits by 2 to the power corresponding to the position of the bit in the number. The sum of these products is the base 10 representation of the number. The computation starts with the least significant bit, i.e. bit position 0. Thus we process the bits in this order: 101010111 Invitation to Computer Science, Java Version, Second Edition

  11. Converting from base 2 to base 10 • For example, suppose we wish to convert 101010111 to base 10. The computation can be displayed as in the table. • Thus, 1010101112 = 34310. Invitation to Computer Science, Java Version, Second Edition

  12. Binary Representation of Numeric and Textual Information (continued) • Representing real numbers • Real numbers may be put into binary scientific notation: a x 2b • Example: 101.11 x 20 • Number then normalized so that first significant digit is immediately to the right of the binary point • Example: .10111 x 23 • Mantissa and exponent then stored Invitation to Computer Science, Java Version, Second Edition

  16. Binary Representation of Sound and Images • Multimedia data is sampled to store a digital form, with or without detectable differences • Representing sound data • Sound data must be digitized for storage in a computer • Digitizing means periodic sampling of amplitude values Invitation to Computer Science, Java Version, Second Edition
