Theory:
The reflected binary code, also known as Gray code after Frank Gray, is a binary numeral system where two successive
values differ in only one bit. The reflected binary code was originally designed to prevent spurious output from
electromechanical switches. Today Gray codes are widely used to facilitate error correction in digital communications such
as digital terrestrial television and some cable TV systems.

Logical Equations:
G2 = B2B1'B0' + B2B1'B1 + B2B1B0' + B2B1B0
G1 = B2'B1B0' + B2'B1B0 + B2B1'B0' + B2B1'B0
G0 = B2'B1'B0 + B2'B1B0' + B2B1'B0 + B2B1B0'
Simplification:
G2 = B2B1'(B0' + B0) + B2B1(B0' + B0)
= B2B1' + B2B1
= B2(B1' +B1)
= B2
G1 = B2'B1B0' + B2'B1B0 + B2B1'B0' + B2B1'B0

= B2'B1(B0' + B0) + B2B1'(B0' + B0)
= B2'B1 + B2B1'
= B2 XOR B1
G0 = B2'B1'B0 + B2'B1B0' + B2B1'B0 + B2B1B0'
= B2'(B1'B0 + B1B0') + B2(B1'B0 + B1B0')
= (B1'B0 + B1B0') (B2' + B2)
= (B1'B0 + B1B0')
= B1 XOR B0

Logic Equations:
B2 = G2G1G0' + G2G1G0 + G2G1'G0 + G2G1'G0'
B1 = G2'G1G0 + G2'G1G0' + G2G1'G0 + G2G1'G0'
B0 = G2'G1'G0 + G2'G1G0' + G2G1G0 + G2G1'G0'
Simplification:
B2 = G2G1G0' + G2G1G0 + G2G1'G0 + G2G1'G0'
= G2G1(G0' + G0) + G2G1'(G0 + G0')
= G2G1 + G2G1'
= G2(G1+G1')
= G2
B1 = G2'G1(G0 + G0') + G2G1'(G0 + G0')
= G2'G1 + G2G1'

= G2 XOR G1
B0 = G2'G1'G0 + G2'G1G0' + G2G1G0 + G2G1'G0'
= G2'(G1'G0 + G1G0') + G2(G1G0 + G1'G0')
= G2'(G1 XOR G0) + G2(G1 XNOR G0) this is of the form A’B+AB’
= G2 XOR G1 XOR G0
Logic Diagram:
Preparation:
Keep a IC pin diagram with you for proper usage of the IC 7486
Insert IC 7486 in the Bread board slots
Make connection as per logic diagram
Result: The circuit is tested and verified with the truth table.
Precaution:
Use Proper power supply both rating and polarity
Make correct connection on IC for the input and output
Use diode with proper polarity, anode to + and cathod to ground
Ensure power supply is switched off while making connection
