Encoders and Decoders

Encoders and Decoders are essential components in digital electronics used for data conversion, communication, and storage, minimizing redundancy and improving signal interpretation. An encoder reduces multiple inputs to fewer outputs, while a decoder performs the reverse function, converting inputs back to outputs. Their applications range from microprocessors to communication systems, enhancing performance in various technological fields.

Introduction

 Encoders and Decoders are fundamental components in digital systems.

 They are used for data conversion, communication, and storage.

 Play a crucial role in minimizing data redundancy and improving signal


interpretation.

 Together, they ensure accurate interpretation and transmission of digital


signals in a wide range of applications, from microprocessors to modern
communication networks..
What is an Encoder?
 An encoder is a digital circuit that converts data from one format to another.

 It reduces multiple input lines to fewer output lines.

 Example: 8-to-3 Encoder.

Types of Encoders

 Binary Encoder

 Priority Encoder

 Rotary Encoder

 Optical Encoder

Priority Encoder Explained
 Prioritizes highest-order input when multiple inputs are active.

 Ensures a deterministic output.

 Example: In 8 inputs, if both I3 and I6 are high, output reflects


What is a Decoder?
 A decoder performs the reverse function of an encoder.

 Converts n inputs to 2ⁿ outputs.

 Used to select among multiple options.

 Example: 2-to-4 decoder.

Types of Decoders

 Binary Decoder

 BCD to 7-Segment Decoder

 Demultiplexer as Decoder

 Address Decoders
Decoder Operation Example
 Input: 2-bit binary number.

 Output: One of 4 lines active.

 Logic: When input is 10, output line Y2 is high.
