  2. 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.

    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. 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.

  7. 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

  8. Codec - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codec

    A codec is a computer hardware or software component that encodes or decodes a data stream or signal. [1] [2] [3] Codec is a portmanteau of coder/decoder.[4]In electronic communications, an endec is a device that acts as both an encoder and a decoder on a signal or data stream, [5] and hence is a type of codec.

  9. Binary-coded decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-coded_decimal

    This scheme can also be referred to as Simple Binary-Coded Decimal (SBCD) or BCD 8421, and is the most common encoding. [12] Others include the so-called "4221" and "7421" encoding – named after the weighting used for the bits – and "Excess-3". [13]
