Test: K Map & Logic Gates - Question 1

Consider numbers represented inbe the Gray code  representation of a number n and let  be the Gray code of  value of the number .Which one of the following functions is correct? 

Detailed Solution for Test: K Map & Logic Gates - Question 1


We need to map min terms of 
Hence as highlighted g2 matches with option C
Edit : we have to map h(x) with g(x)...mod 16 is used in g(x) only because since we have 4 bits ,mamximum possible no that can be represented is 15..so after 15 we shouldn't get 16 and go back to 0.. thats why..
now mapping is simple...we just have to map such that h(x)---->g(x+1)
means if h represents gray code of 0 then g will represent gray code of 1
if h represents gray code of 1 then g will represent for 2 and so on....
for last number h(15) ,mod 16 actually comes into picture which will make it to represent as g(0)
so draw table as mentioned above... now write g as a function of f ..simply how we do minimisation...see the min terms..
be careful only in one thing here...
example... for 2..gray code representation is 0011 meaning 3 in decimal..so if we select this row as a min term(just an example) then we have selected 3 and not 2 ..means row numbers are not representing min terms...rest everything is fine!

Test: K Map & Logic Gates - Question 2

For any natural number , an ordering of all binary strings of length n is a Gray code if it starts with 0n, and any successive strings in the ordering differ in exactly one bit (the first and last string must also differ by one bit). Thus, for n = 3, the ordering (000, 100, 101, 111, 110, 010, 011, 001) is a Gray code. Which of the following must be TRUE for all Gray codes over strings of length n?

Detailed Solution for Test: K Map & Logic Gates - Question 2

1). In the question it is stated that -> Thus, for n=3, the ordering (000, 100, 101, 111, 110, 010, 011, 001) is a Gray code.
2). We have to find orderings such that they start with 0n , must contain all bit strings of length n and successive strings must differ in one bit.
Option c&d are clearly wrong.
Now, consider n=1. The only Gray code possible is {0,1}. Hence no of Gray code = odd for n=1.
For n=2 only two Gray code exists {00, 10, 11, 01} and {00, 01, 11, 10}. Thus no of Gray code = even for n=2.
Thus it is not that gray codes could be only even or only odd.
Hence option e is correct.

Test: K Map & Logic Gates - Question 4

Consider the binary code that consists of only four valid codewords as given below: 00000, 01011, 10101, 11110
Let the minimum Hamming distance of the code p and the maximum number of erroneous bits that can be corrected by the code be q. Then the values of p and q are

Detailed Solution for Test: K Map & Logic Gates - Question 4

00000(code1),01011(code2),10101(code3),11110(code4)
Haming distance = min of all hamming distances.
which is 3 b/w (code1) and (code2) so p = 3
Now to correct d bit error we need hamming distance = 2d+1
so 2d+1 = 3 will gives d= 1.
A is answer

Test: K Map & Logic Gates - Question 6

The following bit pattern represents a floating point number in IEEE 754 single precision format

1 10000011 101000000000000000000000

The value of the number in decimal form is

Detailed Solution for Test: K Map & Logic Gates - Question 6

Sign bit is 1 -> number is negative
Exponent bits- 10000011
Exponent is added with 127 bias in IEEE single precision format.
So, Actual exponent = 10000011 - 127 = 131 - 127 = 4
Mantissa bits- 101000000000000000000000
In IEEE format, an implied 1 is before mantissa, and hence the actual number is
-1.101 * 24 
=- (11010)2 = - 26

Test: K Map & Logic Gates - Question 7

The decimal value 0.5 in IEEE single precision floating point representation has

Detailed Solution for Test: K Map & Logic Gates - Question 7

(B) is the answer. In IEEE uses normalized representation and hence an implicit '1' is used before the decimal point. So, if mantissa is 0000..0
it would be treated as 1.000..0
and hence the exponent need to be -1 for us to get 0.1 which is the binary representation of 0.5.
