INTRODUCTION
DECODER
A decoder is a multiple-input, multiple-output combinational logic circuit. It converts the n bit data inputs into the coded 2n outputs. It decodes the information hidden by the encoder.
While decoding, the decoder generally places logic 1 at one of its outputs to create the exact code. For a different combination of n-bit binary inputs, it produces a 2n coded output. The coded output is produced based on each binary input.
There are different types of decoders in digital electronics based on the number of inputs and its coded output.
