5 Encoders
A encoder is a multiple-input, multiple-output logic circuit that converts coded inputs into coded outputs, where the input and output codes are different. The output code generally has fewer bits than the input code, and there is one-to-one mapping from input code words into output code words.

Binary encoder n The most common decoder circuit is an 2 -to-n encoder or binary encoder. Such a encoder has an 2n-bit binary input code and n-bit output binary code.
Write the truth table for 8-to-3 binary encoder and the output logic function expressions.

Simulation
Suppose the inputs I2 and I4 are both 1, what is the output ? If multiple requests can be made simultaneously, the encoder gives undesirable results.

Priority Encoders The solution is to assign priority to the input lines, so that when multiple inputs are asserted, the encoding device produces the number of the highest-priority input. Such a device is called a priority encoder.

Enable input EI
Output GS is asserted when the device is enabled and one or more of the request are asserted. Output EO is asserted if EI is assert but no request input is asserted, it designed to be connected to the EI input of another 148 that handles lower-priority requests.
