Abstract

A binary data encoding process comprises the steps of separating a given binary data sequence at every two bits by a serial/parallel shift register (18), and converting the separated 2-bit data into a 3-bit code by using a logic circuit (19) and a parallel/serial shift register (20). A conversion pattern in the logic circuit (19) is exclusively determined based on the 2-bit data to be converted, 1-bit data immediately before and 2-bit data immediately after said 2-bit data, and a 3-bit code converted immediately before the conversion of said 2-bit data, wherein a succession of at least one but no more than seven "0" exists between an arbitrary "1" and the succeeding "1" in the converted 3-bit code sequence.
