Q. |
How is an encoder different from a decoder? |
A. | the output of an encoder is a binary code for 1-of-n input |
B. | the output of a decoder is a binary code for 1-of-n input |
C. | the output of an encoder is a binary code for n-of-1 output |
D. | the output of a decoder is a binary code for n-of-1 output |
Answer» A. the output of an encoder is a binary code for 1-of-n input | |
Explanation: an encoder is a combinational circuit encoding the information of 2n input lines to n output lines, thus producing the binary equivalent of the input. it performs the opposite operation of a decoder which results in 2n outputs from n inputs. thus, an encoder different from a decoder because of the output of an encoder is a binary code for 1-of-n input. |
