Signed binary one's complement 0000 0000 1001 1010(2) to an integer in decimal system (in base 10) = ?
1. Is this a positive or a negative number?
In a signed binary one's complement, first bit (the leftmost) indicates the sign,
1 = negative, 0 = positive.
0000 0000 1001 1010 is the binary representation of a positive integer, on 16 bits (2 Bytes).
2. Get the binary representation of the positive (unsigned) number:
* Run this step only if the number is negative *
Flip all the bits in the signed binary one's complement representation (reverse the digits) - replace the bits set on 1 with 0s and the bits on 0 with 1s:
* Not the case *
3. Map the unsigned binary number's digits versus the corresponding powers of 2 that their place value represent:
215
0 214
0 213
0 212
0 211
0 210
0 29
0 28
0 27
1 26
0 25
0 24
1 23
1 22
0 21
1 20
0
4. Multiply each bit by its corresponding power of 2 and add all the terms up:
0000 0000 1001 1010(2) =
(0 × 215 + 0 × 214 + 0 × 213 + 0 × 212 + 0 × 211 + 0 × 210 + 0 × 29 + 0 × 28 + 1 × 27 + 0 × 26 + 0 × 25 + 1 × 24 + 1 × 23 + 0 × 22 + 1 × 21 + 0 × 20)(10) =
(0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 128 + 0 + 0 + 16 + 8 + 0 + 2 + 0)(10) =
(128 + 16 + 8 + 2)(10) =
154(10)
5. If needed, adjust the sign of the integer number by the first digit (leftmost) of the signed binary:
0000 0000 1001 1010(2) = 154(10)
Number 0000 0000 1001 1010(2) converted from signed binary one's complement representation to an integer in decimal system (in base 10):
0000 0000 1001 1010(2) = 154(10)
Spaces used to group digits: for binary, by 4.

Entered binary number length must be: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, or 64 - otherwise extra bits on 0 will be added in front (to the left).
