TASK:

Generate a gray code shaft encoder assembler program such that a user is given a choice of ‘Binary to
Gray or Gray to Binary’. The user is then made to key-in the input bits to the program. The program
outputs to a port of an Intel 8255 programmable Peripheral Interface (PPI) the corresponding gray or
binary value.

Student should then simulate the system using Proteus environment with peripherals; LEDs and Liquid
Crystal Display (LCD).

DESCRIPTION:

Conversion of Gray to Binary;

Let Gray Code be g3, g2, g1, g0. Then the respective Binary Code can be obtained as follows:

Figure1; Gray to Binary Conversion

The process uses the XOR operation. The XOR logic table is as below;

A B Y
1 1 0
1 0 1
0 1 1
0 0 0
Table1; XOR logic table
Conversion of Binary to Gray;

Let Binary code be b3, b2, b1, b0. Then the respective Gray Code can be obtained is as follows

Figure2; Binary to Gray Conversion

In our solution, the program accepts 8 bits of either binary or grey code to entered using the keypad by
the user, the 8 bits are then converted and the equivalent stored and displayed on the LCD.
