How many inputs are required for a 1-of-10 BCD decoder?(a) 4(b) 8(c) 10(d) 2The question was posed to me in an online interview.Question is from Parity Generators/Checkers in section Combinational Circuits of Digital Circuits

Answer»

Right answer is (a) 4

Explanation: A BINARY DECODER is a combinational logic circuit which decodes binary INFORMATION from n-inputs to a MAXIMUM of 2^n outputs. Therefore, for a BCD to decimal decoder, No. of inputs = 4 such that NUMBER of outputs is <= 2^n.
