BINARY ENCODER

EQUIPMENT:
1. Advanced Digital Logic Trainer
2. Connecting Wires
3. IC Type 7432 Quadruple 2- input OR gate

INTRODUCTION:
An encoder is a combinational circuit that performs the inverse operation of a decoder. If a
device output code has fewer bits than the input code has, the device is usually called an
encoder e.g. 2n – to -n, priority encoders.
The simplest encoder is 2n – to –n binary encoder, where it has only one of the 2n inputs =1

and the output is the n-bit binary number corresponding to the active input.

Octal to binary encoder takes 8 inputs and provides 3 outputs, thus doing the opposite of what
the 3-to-8 decoder does. At any one time, only one input line has a value of 1.
Decimal to binary encoder takes 10 inputs and provides 4 outputs, thus doing the opposite of
what the 4-to- 10 decoder does. At any one time, only one input line has a value of 1.

Priority Encoder (Introduction):

The priority encoder is a combinational logic circuit that contains 2^n input lines and n output
lines and represents the highest priority input among all the input lines. When multiple input
lines are active high at the same time, then the input that has the highest priority is considered
first to generate the output. It is used to solve the issues in binary encoders, which generate
wrong output when more than one input line is active high. If more than one input line is active
high(1) at the same time, then this encoder prioritizes every input level and allocates the priority
level to each input. The output of this encoder corresponds to the input that has the highest
priority. To obtain the output, only the input with the highest priority is considered by ignoring
all other input lines. This is a type of binary encoder or an ordinary encoder with a priority
function. The input that has the larger magnitude or highest priority is encoded first rather than
other input lines. Hence, the generated output is based on the priority assigned to the inputs. In
most digital applications, these encoders are used to select the inputs, which have the highest
priority level. This process of selecting the input is called arbitration.

CONCLUSION:

The experiment on designing and implementing a Decimal to Binary Encoder was successful,
demonstrating the ability to convert decimal inputs (0-9) into their respective 4-bit binary
representations using combinational logic circuits comprising AND and OR gates. The
encoder accurately mapped each decimal digit to a unique binary code, ensuring reliable and
instantaneous conversion with minimal delay. Practical implementation on simulation software
or breadboards affirmed the functionality and scalability of the design, highlighting its
relevance in digital systems for tasks such as data processing and arithmetic operations. This
experiment enhanced understanding of binary encoding principles and underscored the
practical application of digital logic in converting numerical data between different formats
efficiently and accurately.
