74HC148 8 to 3 Line Priority Encoder IC (74148 IC) DIP-16 Package

Description

1. 8-to-3 Priority Encoding: The 74HC148 encodes one of the eight input lines to a 3-bit binary code that indicates the highest priority active input.
2. Priority Encoder: It is a priority encoder, meaning it will encode the highest priority active input and ignore the rest.
3. Data Inputs: The IC has eight data inputs (A0 to A7), representing the input lines.
4. Binary Outputs: It provides three binary outputs (A, B, and C) that represent the binary equivalent of the highest priority input.
5. Active-Low Outputs: The outputs are typically active-low, meaning they are low (0) when the corresponding input is detected.
