74138 IC DECODER

74138 DECODER

Decoder A combinational circuit called a decoder can have up to 2n output lines and 'n' input lines. When a decoder is enabled, depending on the mix of inputs, one of these outputs will be active. This means that the decoder discovers a certain code. When the decoder is activated, its outputs are the minimum terms of 'n' input variables (lines). Some features of Decoder are:

  • A Decoder converts an encrypted input signal to many output signals in another format.
  • Encoder is the inverse of a decoder.
  • A decoder is used to identify bits and encode data.
  • In networking applications, decoders are widely used.

What is 74138 Decoder?

The 74138 is a three-to-eight-line decoder or multiplexer integrated circuit. This integrated circuit is ideal for high-speed bipolar memory chip select address decoding. The gadget is composed of a Schottky diode, which makes it fast and compatible with TTL ICs.

 Specifications of the 74138 IC Decoder

  • 4.5-5.5V power supply
  • 5V is a typical voltage supply.
  • 30MHz is the maximum clock frequency.
  • -800µA high-level output current
  • 16mA low-level output current.
  • 2V high-level input voltage.
  • Input voltage at low levels: 0.8V
  • 5.2mA is the current rating.
  • Propagation time: 18ns
  • High velocity
  • TTL compatible with low power consumption.
  • High noise resistance

 We use the well-known Integrated Circuit 74138 3 to 8 decoder. The integrated circuit has sixteen pins.

74138 DECODER

Three input pins, identified as I2, I1, and I0, are present and actively in the high state. The output pins, which are eight and categorized as O7*, O6*, to O0*, are actively in the low state.

The chip requires a grounded +5 V DC power source to function. The fact that just one output line is totally reliant on input pins I2, I1, and I0 should be highlighted.

Let us use the example where the output line O7* becomes 0, when we set pins I2 I1 I0 to 1 1 1. In the unlikely event that I2 I1 I0 = 0 1 0, the lines of output O2* shift to 0.

Additionally, the input activates the lines of output if and only if the 74138 chip is chosen. When E1* becomes 0, E2* becomes 0, and E3 becomes 1, the chip 74138 is chosen.

EPROM-7 is chosen when 74138 is chosen and A12 A11 A10 changes to 1 1 1. Following the selection of 74138 and this place in EPROM-7, a specific location in the address range from A9 to A0 is chosen. Consequently, the starting address becomes:

  • From A15 to A13, choose 74138 0 0 1.
  • From A12 through A10, choose an EPROM. 0 0 0
  • It chooses a place in the EPROM from A9 to A0. 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 The final address bit pattern is therefore changed to 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 => 2000H.

In order to create Chip select logic, 74138 is used:

We create signals for chip selection in an eight-chip microcomputer system utilizing selection logic.

 Let's say there are eight 1K x 8 sized EPROM chips, and we want the addresses to start at 2000H, 2400H, 2800H,..., 3C00H.

In the diagram below, 74138 is chosen when addresses A15, A14, and A13 change to 0 0 1. When 74138 is chosen and A12, A11, and A10 change to 0 0 0, EPROM-0 is chosen. The memory location in the EPROM chooses the address lines starting at A9-0 to be 0, after which 74138 and EPROM-0 get selected.

74138 DECODER

The following figure shows the address of starting for EPROM-0 as a result.

Here,

RAM is chosen by A15 to A11.

A10 to A0 selects a RAM location.

1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 => C400H Following the completion of the 74138 selection, we choose EPROM-7.1 1 1, which is followed by A12 A11 A10.

 Following the selection of 74138 and this place in EPROM-7, a specific location in the lines of address range from A9 to A0 is chosen.
