hex to bcd conversion in c

Salam,

You didn't mention what is the length of the hex 8 bit, 16 bits ...etc

Ok here is a simple method to convert hex (8bit) to bcd

One restriction that method is vaild fot numbers 0 - 99 only.

for example if you want to convert 99 to bcd

1- divide 99 by 10
2- put the result in the high nibble of the result variable
3- put the reminder in the low nibble of the result variable

This method is very easy to implement in C like this

Where X is the Hex , and Y is the result

Enjoy

Bye

Subject: Fast LONG to BCD conversion

This function was written within the Keil C51 environment
by Dr. Roehrer (Inst. f. Elektronik, TU-Graz) and me
to be called from a C - Program as: "void bin2bcd(void)"

The following global variable (must be located in the
internal RAM of the processor, "data" or "idata" ) is
used both to pass the argument (a "long" value) to the
function, as well as to receive the result (6 digits):

union
{
unsigned char buf[6];
long in;
} idata U_b;

The purpose of the code is to convert a signed long value
to BCD - code with leading sign if needed. Values exceeding
the range of 6(-:5) Digits should all be displayed by '-'.
The usage of memory was critical because no external RAM is
present in the system, so only the Accu, B, R1, R2, R3, R4
are used aside of the digit- (and argument-) buffer "U_b".

The trick applied in the function is to use a
"small" (nibble by nibble) division and the extensive
use of the '51 - opcodes XCHD and SWAP.
This results in very fast execution.
The function can easily be modified for example
to time-calculations or extended to the full "long"
range .
