Encoder
*
*
Logic circuit that provides the appropriate code (o/p) Binary, BCD etc.
Reverse process of decoding.
If two or more inputs are activated simultaneously encoder will not provide appropriate
output.
Prioritizing the inputs can solve the problem.
Example for priority encoder: 74LS148, an 8-to-3 priority encoder.

Used to interface output devices to hold address / data for longer time acts as a storage.
To separate (de-multiplex) address and data information on the multiplexed ( time shared)
bus.
