3. Hexadecimal Number To Binary Number Conversion - Example 1
Convert (36C)h to its binary equivalent
Solution:
So, starting from the LSD, we replace each hex digit with its 4-bit binary equivalent.
3 6 C
0011 0110 1100
So, (36C)h = (0011 0110 1100)2

4. Convert the hexadecimal number (7F.CA5)h to its binary equivalent.
Convert the integral part 7F to binary:
(7F)h = (0111 1111)2
• So, (7F)h = (0111 1111)h
Convert the fractional part (0.CA5)h to
binary:
(0.CA5)h = (0.1100 1010 0101)2
• So, (0.CA5)h = (0.1100 1010 0101)2
