Binary to BCD code conversion

Binary to BCD (Binary Coded Decimal) conversion involves converting a binary number into its decimal equivalent, where each decimal digit is represented by its 4-bit binary equivalent. This is useful in digital systems that require decimal digit manipulation, like digital clocks and calculators.

Steps for Conversion:

1. Convert the binary number to its decimal equivalent.
   Example: Binary 101101 → Decimal 45.
2. Write each decimal digit as a 4-bit binary number.
   For example, 45 becomes 0100 (4) and 0101 (5) in BCD.

Example:

Binary: 101101
Decimal: 45
BCD: 0100 0101

This conversion ensures that each digit is separately encoded, simplifying hardware logic.
