Question

In a Gray Code to Binary converter, how is the Most Significant Bit (MSB) of the Binary code determined?

A.

It is the complement of the Most Significant Bit (MSB) of the binary input.

B.

It is equal to the Most Significant Bit (MSB) of the Gray code input.

C.

It is always 1 for all binary inputs.

D.

It is the result of an XOR operation between all the bits of the binary input.

Correct option is B

When converting Gray codeBinary code, the rule for the most significant bit (MSB) is:Bn=GnThat means the binary MSB is directly copied from the Gray code MSB with no change.The remaining binary bits are obtained using XOR operations, but the first bit is unchanged.\text{When converting Gray code} \rightarrow \text{Binary code, the rule for the most significant bit (MSB) is:} \\[6pt]B_n = G_n \\[6pt]\text{That means the binary MSB is \textbf{directly copied} from the Gray code MSB with no change.} \\[6pt]\text{The remaining binary bits are obtained using XOR operations, but the \textbf{first bit is unchanged.}}​​
