Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) is the number system or code which has the binary numbers or digits to represent a decimal number.
In BCD, we can use the binary number from 0000-1001 only.
Suppose, if a number have single decimal digit then its equivalent BCD will be the respective four binary digits of that decimal number.
| Decimal | Binary | BCD |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | 0000 | 0000 |
| 1 | 0001 | 0001 |
| 7 | 0111 | 0111 |
| 8 | 1000 | 1000 |
| 9 | 1001 | 1001 |
| 10 | 1010 | 0001 0000 |
| 11 | 1011 | 0001 0001 |
From [0 to 9] decimal numbers both binary and BCD is equal but when the decimal number is more than one bit, BCD differs from binary.
