with n input lines require 2n output lines to decode every possible combination of bits. BCD to decimal conversion‚ looked at in part 3 of this lab‚ is accomplished using a decoder which has 4 input lines and 10 output lines (the 10 output lines correspond to the decimal numbers 0-9). This device is used to convert between binary numbers and decimal numbers. Encoders: An encoder performs the opposite function of a decoder. An encoder takes a input on one of its 2n input lines and converts it
