Objective: Pin diagram of 74139 (with two 2-to-4 decoders inside).

Tools used:
1. 74HC139

Theory:

A 2-to-4 decoder is a combinational logic circuit that takes two input lines (typically labeled A
and B) and generates four output lines (usually labeled Y0, Y1, Y2, and Y3). Each output
corresponds to a unique combination of the input lines.

Objective: 3-to-8 line decoder implementation.

Tools used:
1. Wires
2. Logisim Software
3. Decoder – 74HC139

Theory:

A 3-to-8 decoder can be constructed using a combination of basic gates, including:

AND gate: Outputs 1 (high) only when all inputs are 1 (high). NOT gate (inverter): Inverts the
input (0 becomes 1, and vice versa). OR gate: Outputs 1 (high) if any of the inputs are 1 (high).

We converted the max terms to min terms for bringing the OR gate for getting the desired
output. Hence, F = m0+m2+m4+m5

Objective: How to use the 3-to-8 line decoder

Tools used:
1. Logisim Software

Theory:
We've designed a 3-to-8 line decoder using two 2-to-4 decoders. In each 2-to-4 decoder, we
utilized a 2-bit input along with an enable signal connected to a NOT gate. The outputs labeled
as Y0 and Y4 from the first decoder were combined using an OR gate, while the outputs Y4 and
Y5 from the second decoder were connected similarly. Finally, both sets of outputs were fed into
a combined OR gate to produce the eight final outputs (Y0 to Y7).
This configuration allows us to decode a 3-bit binary input into one of eight possible output lines,
making it a fundamental component in digital circuitry.

Discussion: We learned The Power of Decoding: Exploring the Uses of Decoders in Digital
Circuits. Decoders play a vital role in digital circuits, acting as the translators between encoded
information and specific actions. They excel in tasks where we need to activate a single output
line based on a unique combination of input bits
