ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a simplified apparatus for converting a ary fraction input into a Natural Binary Coded Decimal (8421 code) and subsequently into a decimal output with the proper sign. The invention provides means for selectively shifting and summing the binary fraction to effect a multiplication by ten. An integer portion to the left of a fixed binal point and a remaining fraction portion to the right are produced. The integer portion is extracted as a BCD character which is converted via a nixie display into decimal form. Shifting and summing successive remaining fractions and displaying successive integer portions produces a final decimal number which corresponds to the binary fraction input.
