Encoders Decoders

The document explains the functions of encoders and decoders in digital circuits, highlighting that encoders convert activated inputs into a binary output code, while decoders convert binary input codes into a single active output. It also covers the 8421 BCD code, which represents decimal digits in binary form, and provides examples of encoder and decoder implementations, including their applications in computer operations and memory addressing. Additionally, it discusses the use of decoders for driving 7-segment displays.

Encoder and Decoder

Introduction
• ENCODER- a digital circuit that produces a binary
output code depending on which of its inputs are
activated.
• An encoder is a multiplexer without its single
output line.

• It is a combinational logic function that has 2n (or


fewer) input lines and n output lines, which
correspond to n selection lines in a multiplexer.

• The n output lines generate the binary code for the


possible 2n input lines

DECODER-
converts an input binary code into a single numeric
output.
DECODER
•A decoder is a logic circuit that accepts a set of inputs
that represents a binary number and activates only the
output that corresponds to the input number.
•In other words, a decoder circuit looks at its inputs,
determines which binary number is present there, and
activates the one output that corresponds to that
number ; all other outputs remain inactive

THE 8421 BCD CODE
• BCD stands for Binary-Coded Decimal.

• A BCD number is a four-bit binary group that


represents one of the ten decimal digits 0 through 9.

Example:

Decimal number 4926 4 9 2 6

8421 BCD coded number 0100 1001 0010 0110

Uses for Decoders
• Binary number might serve to select some
operation
– Computer operation codes are encoded
• Decoder lines might select add operation, or subtract
operation, or multiply operation, etc.
• Memory address lines

Decoders
• Typically n inputs and 2n outputs
• The output line corresponding to the input code
is high
