To implement 8 to 3 Encoder and 3to8 Decoder using verilog and validate its outputs
PC, Cyclone II , USB flasher
Quartus prime
Binary code of N digits can be used to store 2N distinct elements of coded information. This is what encoders and decoders are used for. Encoders convert 2N lines of input into a code of N bits and Decoders decode the N bits into 2N lines.
- Encoders – An encoder is a combinational circuit that converts binary information in the form of a 2N input lines into N output lines, which represent N bit code for the input. For simple encoders, it is assumed that only one input line is active at a time.
As an example, let’s consider Octal to Binary encoder. As shown in the following figure, an octal-to-binary encoder takes 8 input lines and generates 3 output lines.
Implementation –
X = D4 + D5 + D6 + D7 Y = D2 +D3 + D6 + D7 Z = D1 + D3 + D5 + D7 Hence, the encoder can be realised with OR gates as follows:
A decoder does the opposite job of an encoder. It is a combinational circuit that converts n lines of input into 2n lines of output.
Let’s take an example of 3-to-8 line decoder. Implementation – D0 is high when X = 0, Y = 0 and Z = 0. Hence,
D0 = X’ Y’ Z’ Similarly,
D1 = X’ Y’ Z D2 = X’ Y Z’ D3 = X’ Y Z D4 = X Y’ Z’ D5 = X Y’ Z D6 = X Y Z’ D7 = X Y Z
Step1:- Open the quartus II software.
Step2:- Create a new project.
Step3:- Name the projects such that the same name is used for mentioning the name of the module.
Step4:- Develop programmes for both Encoder and Decoder using verilog programming.
Step5:- Run RTL Simulation.
Step6:- Create the Timing diagram.
Step7:- Validate the outputs.

i)ENCODER:
module exp8(a,b,c,d0,d1,d2,d3,d4,d5,d6,d7);
output a,b,c;
input d0,d1,d2,d3,d4,d5,d6,d7;
or(a,d4,d5,d6,d7);
or(b,d2,d3,d6,d7);
or(c,d1,d3,d5,d7);
endmodule
ii)DECODER:
module dec(d0,d1,d2,d3,d4,d5,d6,d7,a,b,c);
output d0,d1,d2,d3,d4,d5,d6,d7;
input a,b,c;
assign d0=(~a & ~b & ~c) ;
assign d1=(~a & ~b &c);
assign d2=(~a & b &~c);
assign d3=(~a & b &c);
assign d4=(a &~b&~c);
assign d5=(a &~b&c);
assign d6=(a&b&~c);
assign d7=(a&b&c);
endmodule
Thus 8 to 3 Encoder and 3to8 Decoder are implemented successfully using verilog and validate its outputs.
