When high voltage level is associated with binary ‘0’ and while the low level

is associated with binary ‘1’ then the system adhering to this is called negative logic

31.Why parity checker is needed?

Parity checker is required at the receiver side to check whether the expected

parity is equal to the calculated parity or not. If they are not equal then it is found

that the received data has error.

Parity bit is an extra bit included with a binary message to make the number

of 1’s either odd or even. The message, including the parity bit is transmitted and

38.What is meant by self-complementing code?

A self-complementing code is the one in which the members of the number

system complement on themselves. This requires the following two conditions to be

satisfied.

a. The complement of the number should be obtained from that number

by replacing 1s with 0s and 0s with 1s.

a. The length of the code is larger and hence more bandwidth is required

6

for transmission.

sufficient.
