  1. IT ENCODES ONLY THE HIGHEST ORDER ACTIVE INPUT EVEN IF MULTIPLE INPUTS ARE ACTIVATED.

  2. A priority encoder is a circuit or algorithm that compresses multiple binary inputs into a smaller number of outputs. The output of a priority encoder is the binary representation of the ordinal number starting from zero of the most significant input bit. They are often used to control interrupt requests by acting on the highest priority request.
    If two or more inputs are given at the same time, the input having the highest priority will take precedence

  3. The priority encoder includes a priority function. The operation of the priority encoder is such that if two or more inputs are active at the same time, the input having the highest priority will take precedence.

  4. priority encoders gives preference to the value having high priority when multiple inputs are given

  5. The priority encoder will produce a BCD output corresponding to the highest order decimal digit input that is active and will ignore any other lower-order active inputs.

  8. unlike mux,that selects one individual data input line and then sends the data to the single output priority takes all the input data once at a time and then converts them into a single encoded output

  9. The circuit has 8 inputs and could have 256 possible input combinations.Only 8 of these combinations have any meaning.The other input combinatons are don't care terms.
    Encoders of this type are not available in IC packages,since they can be easily constructed with OR gates.This type of encoder available in IC form is called priority encoder.
    These encoders establish an input priority to ensure that only the highest priority input line is encoded...

  11. The working of the priority encoder is as follows : whn two or more inputs are active at the same time, the input having the highest priority will take precedence .

  12. it will encode the value having higher priority input when many inputs are given .........

  13. the encoder o/p corresponds to the currently active i/p with highest priority.

  14. An encoder that produces a coded output corresponding to the highest valued input when two or more inputs are applied simultaneously

  15. A priority encoder is a combinational circuit with inputs and outputs. Each of the inputs is assigned a priority. The most significant bit of the input has the highest priority while the least significant bit has the lowest priority. The bits of the output are the binary index of the non-zero input bit with highest priority, all input bits with lower priority will be ignored.

  16. The output of a priority encoder is the binary representation of the ordinal number starting from zero of the most significant input bit.They are often used to control interrupt requests by acting on the highest priority request.Itcompresses multiple binary inputs into a smaller number of outputs.

  18. it is the encoder in which the highest input is encoded and remaining are ignored

  19. it is the circuit or algorithm that compresses multiple binary inputs into a smaller number of outputs and the output of a priority encoder is the binary representation of the ordinary number starting from zero of the most significant input bit.

  20. it encodes all the higher values and ignores the remaining values

  22. it will only encode the highest value
