decoder

decoder
A device for translating electrical signals into predetermined functions. By combining gates and inverters, it is possible to convert a binary number to a decimal, and vice versa. Decoders can be made for any type of output required with any type of input. A decoder normally comes in a single integrated circuit chip. One of the uses of decoders is to decipher signals received from air traffic radar beacon transponders and display them as select codes.
