26. Decoders Next, we’ll look at some commonly used circuits: decoders and multiplexers. –These serve as examples of the circuit analysis and design techniques from last lecture. –They can be used to implement arbitrary functions. –We are introduced to abstraction and modularity as hardware design principles. We often use decoders and multiplexers as building blocks in designing more complex hardware.

27. What a decoder does A n-to-2 n decoder takes an n-bit input and produces 2 n outputs. The n inputs represent a binary number that determines which of the 2 n outputs is uniquely true. A 2-to-4 decoder operates according to the following truth table. –The 2-bit input is called S1S0, and the four outputs are Q0-Q3. –If the input is the binary number i, then output Qi is uniquely true. For instance, if the input S1 S0 = 10 (decimal 2), then output Q2 is true, and Q0, Q1, Q3 are all false. This circuit “decodes” a binary number into a “one-of-four” code.

28. How can you build a 2-to-4 decoder? Follow the design procedures from last time! We have a truth table, so we can write equations for each of the four outputs (Q0-Q3), based on the two inputs (S0-S1). In this case there’s not much to be simplified. Here are the equations: Q0= S1’ S0’ Q1= S1’ S0 Q2= S1 S0’ Q3= S1 S0

29. A picture of a 2-to-4 decoder

30. Enable inputs Many devices have an additional enable input, which is used to “activate” or “deactivate” the device. For a decoder, –EN=1 activates the decoder, so it behaves as specified earlier. Exactly one of the outputs will be 1. –EN=0 “deactivates” the decoder. By convention, that means all of the decoder’s outputs are 0. We can include this additional input in the decoder’s truth table:

31. An aside: abbreviated truth tables In this table, note that whenever EN=0, the outputs are always 0, regardless of inputs S1 and S0. We can abbreviate the table by writing x’s in the input columns for S1 and S0.

32. Decoders are common enough that we want to encapsulate them and treat them as an individual entity. Block diagrams for 2-to-4 decoders are shown here. The names of the inputs and outputs, not their order, is what matters A decoder block provides abstraction: –You can use the decoder as long as you know its truth table or equations, without knowing exactly what’s inside. –It makes diagrams simpler by hiding the internal circuitry. –It simplifies hardware reuse. You don’t have to keep rebuilding the decoder from scratch every time you need it. These blocks are like functions in programming! Blocks and abstraction Q0= S1’ S0’ Q1= S1’ S0 Q2= S1 S0’ Q3= S1 S0

33. A 3-to-8 decoder Larger decoders are similar. Here is a 3-to-8 decoder. –The block symbol is on the right. –A truth table (without EN) is below. –Output equations are at the bottom right. Again, only one output is true for any input combination. Q0= S2’ S1’ S0’ Q1= S2’ S1’ S0 Q2= S2’ S1 S0’ Q3= S2’ S1 S0 Q4= S2 S1’ S0’ Q5= S2 S1’ S0 Q6= S2 S1 S0’ Q7= S2 S1 S0

34. So what good is a decoder? Do the truth table and equations look familiar? Decoders are sometimes called minterm generators. –For each of the input combinations, exactly one output is true. –Each output equation contains all of the input variables. –These properties hold for all sizes of decoders. This means that you can implement arbitrary functions with decoders. If you have a sum of minterms equation for a function, you can easily use a decoder (a minterm generator) to implement that function. Q0= S1’ S0’ Q1= S1’ S0 Q2= S1 S0’ Q3= S1 S0

35. Design example: addition Let’s make a circuit that adds three 1-bit inputs X, Y and Z. We will need two bits to represent the total; let’s call them C and S, for “carry” and “sum.” Note that C and S are two separate functions of the same inputs X, Y and Z. Here are a truth table and sum-of-minterms equations for C and S. 1 + 1 + 1 = 11 0 + 1 + 1 = 10 C(X,Y,Z) =  m(3,5,6,7) S(X,Y,Z) =  m(1,2,4,7)

36. Here, two 3-to-8 decoders implement C and S as sums of minterms. The “+5V” symbol (“5 volts”) is how you represent a constant 1 or true in LogicWorks. We use it here so the decoders are always active. Decoder-based adder C(X,Y,Z) =  m(3,5,6,7) S(X,Y,Z) =  m(1,2,4,7)

37. Using just one decoder C(X,Y,Z) =  m(3,5,6,7) S(X,Y,Z) =  m(1,2,4,7) Since the two functions C and S both have the same inputs, we could use just one decoder instead of two.

42. Multiplexers A combinational circuit that selects info from one of many input lines and directs it to the output line. The selection of the input line is controlled by input variables called selection inputs. They are commonly abbreviated as “MUX”.

45. Combinational circuit implementation using MUX We can use Multiplexers to express Boolean functions also. Expressing Boolean functions as MUXs is more efficient than as decoders. First n-1 variables of the function used as selection inputs; last variable used as data inputs. If last variable is called Z, then each data input has to be Z, Z’, 0, or 1.

48. Karnaugh Map Method of Multiplexer Implementation Consider the function: A is taken to be the data variable and B,C to be the select variables.

49. Example of MUX combo circuit F(X,Y,Z) =  m(1,2,6,7)

51. 4 Basic types of Flip-Flops SR, JK, D, and T JK ff has 2 inputs, J and K need to be asserted at the same time to change the state D ff has 1 input D (DATA), which sets the ff when D = 1 and resets it when D = 0 T ff has1 input T (Toggle), which forces the ff to change states when T = 1 SR ff has 2 inputs, S (set) and R (reset) that set or reset the output Q when asserted

54. Gated D-Latch Ensures S and R inputs never equal to 1 at the same time Useful in control application where setting or resetting a flag to some condition is needed Stores bits of information Constructed from a gated SR latch and a Data latch

66. Edge and level-triggered Flip Flop Digital circuit often form loops, flip-flops oscillations can Oscillation will not occur because by the time an output change cause an input change, the activating edge of the CK signal will be gone Positive edge triggered – ff responds to a positive going edge of clock Negative edge triggered – responds to a negative-going edge
