8085 program to convert an 8 bit number into Grey number

In this program we will see how to find the gray code from an 8-bit number.

Problem Statement

Write 8085 Assembly language program to convert an 8-bit number stored at 8000H to its equivalent gray code. The result will be stored at 8050H.

Discussion

In this program we are converting binary to gray code. The procedure is simple. At first we have to shift the content to the right, then perform XOR operation with the sifted content and the actual content. Thus we will get the gray code. For an example if the number is ABH, then the binary value will be (1010 1011), after shifting the value will be (0101 0101) = 55H, now by XORing ABH and 55H, the result will be (1111 1110) = FEH
