Encoder
An encoder converts information from one form to another for the purpose of standardization, speed or compression.
Media
- A compressor encodes data (e.g., audio/video/images) into a smaller form (see codec)
- An audio encoder converts digital audio to analog audio signals
- A video encoder converts digital video to analog video signals
- An 8b/10b encoder creates DC balance on a communication transmission line
Transducers
- A rotary encoder converts rotary position to electronic signals
- A linear encoder converts linear position to electronic signals
- An incremental encoder converts position changes to electronic signals in real time
Electronic circuits
- A simple encoder assigns a binary code to an active input line.
- Priority encoders establish the priority of competing inputs (such as interrupt requests) by outputting a binary code representing the highest-priority active input.
