  1. CS 151: Digital Design Chapter 3 3-8: Encoding

  2. Encoding • Encoding - the opposite of decoding - the conversion of a maximum of 2n input code to an n-bit output code such that each valid code word produces a unique output code. • Circuits that perform encoding are called encoders. • An encoder has 2n (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. CS 151

  3. Encoder Example-1 • Octal-to Binary Encoder • 1. Specifications: • Inputs: the 8 octal digits D0-D7 • Output: the 3-bit binary code corresponding to the input octal digit. • Assumptions: Only one input has a value of 1 at any time. • 2. Truth table: A2 = D4 +D5+D6+D7 A1= D2+D3+D6+D7 A0=D1+D3+D5+D7 The encoder can be implemented with 3 OR gates. CS 151

  4. Encoder Example-2 • A decimal-to-BCD encoder • Inputs: 10 bits corresponding to decimal digits 0 through 9, (D0, …, D9) • Outputs: 4 bits with BCD codes • Function: If input bit Di is a 1, then the output (A3, A2, A1, A0) is the BCD code for i, • The truth table could be formed, but alternatively, the equations for each of the four outputs can be obtained directly. CS 151

  5. Encoder Example-2 (continued) • Input Diis a term in equation Aj if bit Aj is 1 in the binary value for i. • Equations: A3 = D8 + D9 A2 = D4 + D5 + D6 + D7 A1 = D2 + D3 + D6 + D7 A0 = D1 + D3 + D5 + D7 + D9 • F1 = D6 + D7 can be extracted from A2 and A1 Is there any cost saving? CS 151

  6. Priority Encoder • Problem 1: If more than one input value is 1, then the encoder just designed does not work. (E.g. if D3 and D6 are both 1, what is the output?) • Solution: One encoder that can accept all possible combinations of input values and produce a meaningful result is a priority encoder. • Priority encoders establish an input priority to ensure that only one input is encoded. • Among the 1s that appear, it selects the most significant input position containing a 1 and responds with the corresponding binary code for that position. CS 151

  7. Priority Encoder • Problem 2: When all inputs are equal to 0, an output of all 0’s is generated- but this is the same output for D0??? • Solution: Provide one more output (v) to indicate that at least one input is equal to 1. CS 151

  8. Priority Encoder Example • Priority encoder with 4 inputs (D3, D2, D1, D0) - highest priority to most significant 1 present - Code outputs A2, A1, A0 and V where V indicates at least one 1 present. • Xs in input part of table represent 0 or 1; thus table entries correspond to product terms instead of minterms. The column on the left shows that all 16 minterms are present in the product terms in the table. X’s in output represent don’t cares A1 = D3’D2 + D3 A0 = D3’D2’D1 + D3 V = D0 + D1+ D2+ D3 Condensed truth table CS 151

  9. Priority Encoder Example • What does the full truth table look like? D0=X D1=X D0 =X D2 =X D1 =X D0 =X CS 151

  10. Priority Encoder Example A1 = D3’D2 + D3 A0 = D3’D2’D1 + D3 V = D0 + D1+ D2+ D3 CS 151

  11. Priority Encoder Example A0 = D3 + D1D2’ A1 = D2 + D3 V = D0 + D1 + D2 + D3 CS 151

  12. In Class Exercise • (Problem 4-11) Derive the truth table of a BCD-to-binary priority encoder. Where the highest priority is assigned to the least index among BCD inputs. CS 151
