Abstract
Abstract In order to effectively plan and develop projects involving microcomputers, the industrial engineer requires background information on number systems, binary arithmetic, and binary logic. In this tutorial article, a basic introduction to these topics is provided. Specific topics include: positional number systems, conversion between number systems, addition and subtraction of binary numbers, the two's complement of negative numbers, the ASCII and Gray codes, the basic logic functions (AND, OR, NOT, NAND, NOR, XOR), and some applications of basic logic functions, including a decoder, an adder, and a binary latch. This is the first of an integrated series of articles dealing with concepts and techniques for interfacing microcomputers to industrial devices.
