Question 1 of 10
What type of logic circuit is an encoder and decoder?
Encoders and decoders are built using combinational logic, where the output depends only on the current input.
Question 2 of 10
What is the primary function of an encoder?
An encoder's main function is to transform an input signal into a coded format, commonly BCD.
Question 3 of 10
How many output lines does a general 'n' to '2^n' decoder have?
A decoder with 'n' inputs will have '2^n' possible output combinations.
Question 4 of 10
What is the output of an encoder usually?
Encoders commonly convert inputs into BCD.
Question 5 of 10
What type of gates are mainly used to implement an encoder?
Encoders can be implemented using OR gates to generate the coded output.
Question 6 of 10
Which component is the reverse of an encoder?
A decoder performs the inverse function of an encoder.
Question 7 of 10
What is the primary input of a decoder?
A decoder receives a coded input, like BCD.
Question 8 of 10
What is the primary output of a decoder?
The decoder converts the BCD signal back to its original form.
Question 9 of 10
Which of the following gate types are primarily used to implement a decoder?
Decoders typically use AND and NOT gates to decode the binary inputs.
Question 10 of 10
In a 4-to-2 encoder, if inputs D2 and D3 are both high simultaneously, which line is prioritized?
In priority encoders, the highest-numbered input (D3 in this case) takes precedence.
