How many 3-to-8 line decoders with an enable input are needed to construct a 6-64?

You need 9 3-to-8 decoders. 8 decoders for selecting one of 64 lines. 1 decoder for enabling 1 decoder out of 8 decoder.

What is encoder explain in brief?

An encoder is a digital circuit which accepts one of the inputs and converts it into BCD or Binary Coded Output. It performs the reverse function of that of a decoder.


What is ic 74150?

It is a data selector. There are 16 digital input lines, 4-bit decoder, strobe and output pin. So you put a 4-bit binary number from 0-15 into ABCD bits and the corresponding input value is found on output at the strobe time.


Comparison between ADC and DAC?

An ADC, or analog to digital decoder, is used to "translate" analog signals into digital signals. An analog signal can take on any value, such as 0.1V, 0.5V, 4.12V, 5V and so on. A digital signal on the other hand can either be "high" or "low", 1 or 0. A computer can only work with digital signals, and therefore you need to convert an analog signal into a digital signal in order for the computer to be able to work with it. This is what you do when you record sounds or music. Sound is an analog signal and had to be converted with an ADC to a digital signal before it can be used in a compter or stored on a CD. A DAC, or digital to analog decoder is the oposite of the ADC. Here the digital signal is converted into an analog signal. This is what happens when you play music from a CD-plate. On a CD there are a number of holes, which each translates as a 0 or 1. These are read with a laser beam which is reflected back into a receiver whenever the laserbeam hits a hole. This then counts as a 1. When the disk is spinning it produces a stream of 1s and 0s, which togerther form a binary string, such as 00010111011101. The DAC then converts this value into a analogue signal, such as 1.1V, which is then used to power your speaker and produce audible sound.

What is difference between decoder and demultiplexer?

mohammed.eng.2005@gmail.com ---- The differences between these two circuits is subtle, as far as I can tell. A demux simply selects an output line, nothing more. It's a glorified switch. A decoder takes n inputs, and uses those inputs to determine which of the 2^n output lines is high. This is the difference, I think. A decoder is designed to simply keep one line high. A demux is designed to set one output equal to the input (whether it be high, low, or a changing signal).


What is difference between decoder and demux?

Decoder convert an input binary code into a corresponding single active output. you can think of a Multiplexer (switch) as your home systems-it connects data from one of n sources to its output.when you want play movie you select movie on your home system then it switch it to movie..
