Option 1 : The excess three code

  • Excess 3 code is a 4-bit code.
  • It can be derived from the BCD code by adding ‘3’ to each coded number. Thus, in excess 3 code 0011 is added to each BCD number.
  • It is an un-weighted code.
  • It is a self-complimenting code i.e. the 1’s complement of an excess three number is the excess 3 code for the 9’s complement of the corresponding decimal number.
