  2. Binary decoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_decoder

    In digital electronics, a binary decoder is a combinational logic circuit that converts binary information from the n coded inputs to a maximum of 2 n unique outputs. They are used in a wide variety of applications, including instruction decoding, data multiplexing and data demultiplexing, seven segment displays, and as address decoders for memory and port-mapped I/O.

  3. Decoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decoder

    Audio decoder converts digital audio to analog form; Binary decoder, digital circuits such as 1-of-N and seven-segment decoders; Decompress (compression decoder), converts compressed data (e.g., audio/video/images) to an uncompressed form; Instruction decoder, an electronic circuit that converts computer instructions into CPU control signals

  4. Secret decoder ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_decoder_ring

    A secret decoder ring (or secret decoder) is a device that allows one to decode a simple substitution cipher—or to encrypt a message by working in the opposite direction. [ 1 ] As inexpensive toys, secret decoders have often been used as promotional items by retailers, as well as radio and television programs, from the 1930s through to the ...

  5. Decoding methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decoding_methods

    Hence, if we were lucky that these positions of the received word contained no errors, and hence equalled the positions of the sent codeword, then we may decode. If t {\displaystyle t} errors occurred, the probability of such a fortunate selection of columns is given by ( n − t k ) / ( n k ) {\displaystyle \textstyle {\binom {n-t}{k}}/{\binom ...

  6. Encoding/decoding model of communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encoding/decoding_model_of...

    Thus, encoding/decoding is the translation needed for a message to be easily understood. When you decode a message, you extract the meaning of that message in ways to simplify it. Decoding has both verbal and non-verbal forms of communication: Decoding behavior without using words, such as displays of non-verbal communication.

  7. Video codec - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_codec

    A short video explaining the concept of video codecs. A video codec is software or hardware that compresses and decompresses digital video.In the context of video compression, codec is a portmanteau of encoder and decoder, while a device that only compresses is typically called an encoder, and one that only decompresses is a decoder.

  8. Instruction cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instruction_cycle

    The instruction cycle (also known as the fetch–decode–execute cycle, or simply the fetch–execute cycle) is the cycle that the central processing unit (CPU) follows from boot-up until the computer has shut down in order to process instructions. It is composed of three main stages: the fetch stage, the decode stage, and the execute stage.

  9. Decoding (semiotics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decoding_(semiotics)

    If there is no receiver/decoder then a message can’t be decoded and hold any value whatsoever (Eadie and Goret 29). When there is no value to a message the decoder cannot make meaning out of it (Eadie and Goret 29). [2] When the message is received, the addressee is not passive, but decoding is more than simply recognizing the content of the ...
