    This document discusses decoders and BCD to 7-segment decoders. It explains that a decoder converts one digital code to another, such as converting binary coded decimals to a format displayable on a 7-segment display. It then describes 7-segment displays, common cathode and anode displays, and the segments used to display each number. Finally, it mentions the commonly used 7447 BCD to 7-segment decoder IC and its pinout.

    DIGITAL LOGIC DESIGN

    SIII EE

    DECODERS
    INTRODUCTION TO DECODERS
    • A decoder is a digital combinational logic circuit which can convert one
    form of digital code into another form.

    • BCD to 7-segment display decoder is a special decoder which can


    convert binary coded decimals into another form which can be easily
    displayed through a 7-segment display.

    • BCD stands for binary coded decimal. It is a digital numbering system in


    which we can represent each decimal number using 4 bits of binary
    numbers. Therefore, decimal digits from 0-9 can be represented in 4
    binary digits, that is in BCD, but decimal number 10 and above can not be
    represented in only 4 digits, so in this case we have to use 4 + 4, i.e 8
    binary digits, for eg to represent decimal 10 = BCD 0001 0000,
    dec 11 = 0001 0001 in BCD & dec 12 = 0001 0010 in BCD and so on.
    2
    There are 10 digits in the decimal system(0-9). To represent all 10 digits we need

    10 combinations of 4 binary bits

    3
    Introduction to Seven Segment Displays
    Most often Seven-Segment Displays are used
    to display the digits in digital watches,
    calculators, clocks, measuring instruments and
    digital counters, etc.

    Typically 7-segment displays consist of seven


    individual coloured LED’s called the ‘Segments’,
    within one single display package.

    • In order to produce the required numbers or HEX characters


    from 0 to 9 and A to F respectively, on the 7 Segment Display the correct
    combination of LED segments need to be illuminated.

    • A standard 7-segment LED display generally has 8 input connections, one


    for each LED segment and one that acts as a common terminal or
    connection for all the internal display segments. Some single displays
    have also have an additional input pin to display a decimal point in their
    lower right or left hand corner.

    TYPES OF 7 SEG DSPLYS
    • Common Cathode
    • In such type of 7-segment display, all the cathodes of the 7 LEDs are
    connected together to form a common terminal. It should be connected to
    GND or logic ‘0’ during its operation.
    • To illuminate any LED of this display, you need to supply logic ‘1’ to its
    corresponding input pin.

    • Common Anode
    • In such type of 7-segment display, all the anode terminals of 7 LEDs are
    connected together to form common anode terminal. This terminal should
    be connected with Vcc or logic ‘1’ during its operation.
    • To illuminate any LED of this display, you need to supply logic ‘0’ to its
    corresponding input pin.

    BCD to 7-Segment Decoder IC & Pin outs

    The commonly used IC for BCD to 7-segment decoding is 7447. The pin
    configuration of 7447 is given in the figure below.

    Encoders
    • What are Encoders?
    • Encoders are digital ICs used for encoding. By
    encoding, we mean generating a digital binary
    code for every input. An Encoder IC generally
    consists of an Enable pin which is usually set
    high to indicate the working. It consists of 2^n
    input lines and n output lines with each input
    line being represented by a code of zeros and
    ones which are reflected at the output lines.

    Decoders
    • What are Decoders?
    • Decoders are digital ICs which are used for
    decoding. In other words, the decoders decrypt or
    obtain the actual data from the received code, i.e.
    convert the binary input at its input to a form, which
    is reflected at its output. It consists of n input lines
    and 2^n output lines.  A decoder can be used to
    obtain the required data from the code or can also be
    used for obtaining the parallel data from the serial
    data received.
