The output of a priority encoder is the binary representation of the index of the most significant activated line, starting from zero. They are often used to control interrupt requests by acting on the highest priority interrupt input.  If two or more inputs are given at the same time, the input having the highest priority will take precedence.[1] An example of a single bit 4 to 2 encoder is shown, where highest-priority inputs are to the left and “x” indicates an irrelevant value – i.e. any input value there yields the same output since it is  superseded by higher-priority input. The (usually-included[a]) “v” output indicates if the input is valid.4 to 2 Priority EncoderI3I2I1I0O1O0v0000xx00001001001x01101xx1011xxx111Priority encoders can be easily connected in arrays to make larger encoders, such as one 16-to-4 encoder made from six 4-to-2 priority encoders – four 4-to-2 encoders having the signal source connected to their inputs, and the two remaining encoders take the output of the first four as input. The priority encoder is an improvement on a simple encoder circuit, in terms of handling all possible input configurations.Recursive construction of priority encoders[2][3][4][edit]A priority-encoder, also called leading zero detector (LZD) or leading zero counter (LZC), receives an n{displaystyle n}-bit input vector and detects the index of the first binary \u20181\u2019 in the input vector. A valid signal indicates if any binary \u20181\u2019 was detected in the input vector, hence the index is valid.Priority-encoders can be efficiently constructed by recursion. The input vector is split into k{displaystyle k} equal fragments with n\/k{displaystyle n\/k} bits. A priority encoder PEn\/k{displaystyle {textrm {PE}}_{n\/k}} with a narrower width of \ud835\udc5b\/\ud835\udc58 is applied for each fragment. The valid bit of each of the k{displaystyle k} PEn\/k{displaystyle {textrm {PE}}_{n\/k}}\u2018s goes to a k{displaystyle k} bit PEn\/k{displaystyle {textrm {PE}}_{n\/k}} to detect the first valid fragment. The location of this fragment is the higher part of the overall index, and steers the exact location within the fragment itself to produce the lower part of the overall index.The depth of the proposed structure is \u2308logk\u2061n\u2309{displaystyle lceil log _{k}nrceil }, while the hardware area complexity is O(n){displaystyle {mathcal {O}}(n)}. If Altera’s Stratix V or equivalent device is used, k=4{displaystyle k=4} is recommended to achieve higher performance and area compression, since the mux can be implemented using 6-LUT, hence an entire ALM.An open-source Verilog generator for the recursive priority-encoder is available online.[5]  Priority-encoder (left) symbol (right) recursive definition.A behavioral description of priority encoder in Verilog is as follows.[5]\/\/ behavioural description of priority enconder;\/\/ https:\/\/github.com\/AmeerAbdelhadi\/Indirectly-Indexed-2D-Binary-Content-Addressable-Memory-BCAMmodule pe_bhv #( parameter                   OHW = 512 ) \/\/ encoder one-hot input width  ( input                       clk       , \/\/ clock for pipelined priority encoder    input                       rst       , \/\/ registers reset for pipelined priority encoder    input      [      OHW -1:0] oht       ,  \/\/ one-hot input  \/ [      OHW -1:0]    output reg [`log2(OHW)-1:0] bin       ,  \/\/ first '1' index\/ [`log2(OHW)-1:0]    output reg                  vld       ); \/\/ binary is valid if one was found      \/\/ use while loop for non fixed loop length  \/\/ synthesizable well with Intel's QuartusII  always @(*) begin    bin = {`log2(OHW){1'b0}};    vld = oht[bin]         ;    while ((!vld) && (bin!=(OHW-1))) begin      bin = bin + 1 ;      vld = oht[bin];    end  endendmoduleSimple encoder[edit]  A simple 4:2 Encoder using OR gate.A simple encoder circuit is a one-hot to binary converter. That is, if there are 2n input lines, and at most only one of them will ever be high, the binary code of this ‘hot’ line is produced on the n-bit output lines.References[edit]^ M.
