Priority encoder converts multiple binary inputs into binary representation of the index of active input bit with the highest priority. It is used where more than one device want to access the system, it decides the priority of the device to be serve by the system. Priority encoders are used when multiple devices have to share common resources. Several researches are made on these encoders but found no research work on FinFET based Priority encoder. The FinFET device has gained very much attention on recent VLSI designs and FinFET is the substitute for bulk CMOS at nano-scale because of its high short channel effect immunity, scalability and lower leakage power consumption. In this paper, a 4 input-3 output priority encoder is implemented using FinFET design.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
