Question

Convert the following numbers to two's complement fixed point numbers assuming that a 10 bit word is used. Assume that one bit is used for the sign. Assume that the decimal point is located after the sign bit in each case. Specify the value of the exponent for the number using this assumption: 0.0934

Step 1

Since one bit is used for the sign, we have 9 bits for the fractional part. The range of a 10-bit two's complement number with one sign bit is from -1 to just under 1. The resolution is determined by the number of fractional bits, which is \(2^{-9} = Show more…
