The result is that Gray code counters consume only half the power of an equivalent binary counter and they generate correspondingly less noise. Actually, while the power (and average noise) difference ...

there isn’t a single Gray code. The term refers to any sequence of binary numbers where each item has only one bit difference between itself and adjacent items. In academic-speak, the Hamming ...

and also known as "reflected binary code," Gray code was patented by Bell Labs researcher Frank Gray in 1947. In Gray code, there is only one bit location different between numeric increments ...
