3. Loopback, or loop-back adapter - refers to the routing of electronic
signals, digital data streams, or flows of items back to their source
without intentional processing or modification. This is primarily a means
of testing / measuring the communications infrastructure.

Logic probe / Digital logic tester is able to detect lines that are at the
digital or logic high state. The logic probe will indicate this typically with
an LED which is often coloured red. Logic low: The logic probe also is
able to indicate a logic or digital low often coloured green.

What is It
Definition of Terms
Binary – the primary language for computers that is made up of only two
numbers: 0 and 1 (Computer Hope, 2019).
Bit (b) – short for binary digit (Computer Hope, 2020), either 0 or 1.
Byte (B) – a unit of computer information consisting of eight (8) bits (Merriam-
Webster, n.d.)
Giga Hertz (GHz) – also known as clock rate or clock speed of the processor
(Computer Hope, 2018).

How to Read Binary
Binary is a base-2 number system, where the number two (2) is raised by an
exponent (n-1). The exponent is denoted by the digits’ place (n) and subtracted
by 1, wherein it increases as you move through each position starting from the
right going to the left.
For example, number 2 on the first position, so that is 2 raised by n-1, wherein
n=1.
2(n-1) = 2(1-1) = 20
Considering the given table below, the first position is the rightmost cell and the
leftmost position is the last cell.
Position
7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
(n-1)
Exponent
27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20
2(Position)
Value 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
Note: The first place should be 1 but since it is (n-1) subtracted by 1, it becomes
0.
To read a binary number, get the turn - ON value/s only and sum it up, no need
to include the turned-OFF value/s. For example:
11
Value 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
ON/OFF 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1
0000 0001 = 1
Value 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
ON/OFF 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1
0000 0101 = 5
The binary number 0000 0101 is equivalent to 5 because the turned-ON values
are: (ALWAYS START FROM THE RIGHT)
1 and 4
Number 5 and the “Value” in the tables are examples of decimal numbers, the
number system that we have known since we learned how to count numbers.
1 0000 0001
+ 2 + 0000 0010
---------------------------- ------------------------------------------------

8 bits = 1 byte
That is how the computer represented the letters and numbers, and all
the data that you can see in the computer like images and videos.
Decimal to Binary Conversion
Rule: If the fraction is = ½ or .5, it is equivalent to 1.
In converting a decimal number to binary, all you have to do is:
1. Divide the number by 2.
2. Write the quotient and multiply the remainder by 2.
3. Divide the remainder by 2.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you get a quotient of 0.
5. Read the values of the remainder from the bottom to top. Write the
values to get the binary value of the decimal number.
Example:
Convert 19 to binary

Checking:
There are two ways to check if the conversion is accurate.

Binary

State
1 + 2 + 0 + 0 + 16 + 0 + 0 + 0
= 19
Binary Prefixes
Also called as prefix multipliers consisting of a one-letter abbreviation and the
prefix it stands for.
Unit Symbol Power of 2 (bytes) VALUE in Bytes
Kilobyte KB 210 1,204
Megabyte MB 220 1,048,576
Gigabyte GB 230 1,073,741,824
Terabyte TB 240 1,009,511,627,776
14
For example:
If you have noticed, a 1 KB is not an exact 1,000 bytes but actually its 1,024
bytes because the computer uses binary code in translating capacity and
speed. So, if you have a hard disk with a capacity of 500 GB, its actual size is
536,870,912,000 bytes, and not 500,000,000,000 bytes.
On the contrary, you cannot view a 1 KB file as an actual 1,024 bytes in your
computer because it’s just how Windows represented it. There are a lot of
factors involved in it and it will not be tackled in this lesson.
In a storage device, you need to know its capacity as well as how much space
is used and free.
For example, you have an 8 GB flash drive. You want to copy a file with a size
of 1 GB and your flash drive’s free space is 2 GB. How much free space will be
left after you copied that file to your flash drive?
15
Computation:
Let FSAC = free space of flash drive after copying
FS = 1 GB (size of the file you want to copy)
FSBC = 2 GB (free space of flash drive before copying)
FSAC = FS – FSBC
FSAC = 2 GB – 1 GB
FSAC = 1 GB
Therefore, there will be only 1 GB of free space in your flash drive after copying
the file.
Checking:
Use the equation FSAC = FS – FSBC:
FSAC = FS – FSBC
1 GB = 2 GB – 1 GB
1 GB = 1 GB
Therefore, your computation is correct!
