1. 1 DLD Lecture 16 More Multiplexers, Encoders and Decoders

2. 2 Overview °Binary decoders Converts an n-bit code to a single active output Can be developed using AND/OR gates Can be used to implement logic circuits. °Binary encoders Converts one of 2 n inputs to an n-bit output Useful for compressing data Can be developed using AND/OR gates °Both encoders and decoders are extensively used in digital systems

4. 4 Implementing a Four- Input Function with a Multiplexer

5. 5 Typical multiplexer uses

6. 6 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 °In its general form, a decoder has N input lines to handle N bits and form one to 2 N output lines to indicate the presence of one or more N-bit combinations. The basic binary function An AND gate can be used as the basic decoding element because it produces a HIGH output only when all inputs are HIGH

7. 7 Binary Decoder °Black box with n input lines and 2 n output lines °Only one output is a 1 for any given input °Convert binary information from n input lines to 2 n output lines. °Known as n-to-m-line decoder (m = 2 n ). °May be used to generate the 2 n minterms of n input variables. Binary Decoder n inputs m=2 n outputs

19. 19 Implementing Functions Using Decoders °Any n-variable logic function can be implemented using a single n-to-2 n decoder to generate the minterms OR gate forms the sum. The output lines of the decoder corresponding to the minterms of the function are used as inputs to the or gate. °Any combinational circuit with n inputs and m outputs can be implemented with an n-to-2 n decoder with m OR gates. °Suitable when a circuit has many outputs, and each output function is expressed with few minterms.

20. 20 Implementing Functions Using Decoders °Example: Full adder S(x, y, z) =  (1,2,4,7) C(x, y, z) =  (3,5,6,7) 3-to-8 Decoder S2S1S0S2S1S0 x y z 0123456701234567 S C °A Boolean function, in sum-of- minterms form, can be implemented using: °a decoder to generate the minterms, and °an OR gate to form the sum. °Any combinational circuit with n inputs and m outputs can be implemented with an n:2 n decoder with m OR gates. °Good when circuit has many outputs, and each function is expressed with few minterms.

23. 23 Building a Binary Decoder with NAND Gates Start with a 2-bit decoder Add an enable signal (E) Note: use of NANDs only one 0 active! if E = 0

24. 24 Use two 3 to 8 decoders to make 4 to 16 decoder °Enable can also be active high °In this example, only one decoder can be active at a time. °x, y, z effectively select output line for w °When w=0, the top decoder is enabled and the other is disabled. The bottom decoder outputs are all 0’s, and the top eight outputs generate min-terms 0000 to 0111. °When w=1, the enable conditions are reversed. The bottom decoder outputs generate min- terms 1000 to 1111, while the outputs of the top decoder are all 0’s.

25. 25 Decoder Application Decoders are used in many types of applications. One example is in computers for I/O selection Computer must communicate with a variety of external devices called peripherals by sending and/or receiving data through what is known as input/output (I/O) ports Each I/O port has a number, called an address, which uniquely identifies it. When the computer wants to communicate with a particular device, it issues the appropriate address code for the I/O port to which that particular device is connected. The binary port address is decoded and appropriate decoder output is activated to enable the I/O port Binary data are transferred within the computer on a data bus, which is a set of parallel lines

26. 26 Encoders °If the decoder's output code has fewer bits than the input code, the device is usually called an encoder. e.g. 2 n -to-n °The simplest encoder is a 2 n -to-n binary encoder O ne of 2 n inputs = 1 Output is an n-bit binary number............ 2 n inputs n outputs Binary encoder

27. Encoding - the opposite of decoding - the conversion of an m- bit input code to a n-bit output code with n  m  2 n such that each valid code word produces a unique output code Circuits that perform encoding are called encoders An encoder has 2 n (or fewer) input lines and n output lines which generate the binary code corresponding to the input values Typically, an encoder converts a code containing exactly one bit that is 1 to a binary code corresponding to the position in which the 1 appears........ n outputs 2 n inputs 2 n -to-n Encoder Encoders
