ABSTRACT:

We are using dip switches to give input to the encoder IC and then it generates a code of input which is decoded through decoder IC and in the end the seven segment display, displays the number which we had entered.

WORKING:

Logic is useful when the device that you wish to drive uses active-low inputs. Encoders are the opposite of decoders. They are used to generate a coded output from a single active numeric input. To illustrate this in a simple manner, let’s take a look at the simple decimal-to-BCD encoder circuit shown below. In this circuit, normally all lines are held high by the pull-up resistors connected to +5 V. To generate a BCD output that is equivalent to a single selected decimal input, the switch corresponding to that decimal is closed. (The switch acts as an active-low input.)74LS147 decimal-to-BCD (10-line-to-4-line) priority encoder IC. The 74LS147 provides the same basic function but it has active-low outputs. This means that instead of getting an LLHH output when “3” is selected, as in the previous encoder, you get HHLL. The two outputs represent the same thing (“3”); one is expressed in positive true logic, and the other (the 74LS147) is expressed in negative true logic. If you do not like negative true logic, you can slap inverters on the outputs of the 74LS147 to get positive true logic. The choice to use positive or negative true logic really depends on what you are planning to drive. For example, negative true
