HDB3 Encoder Design


Below is a schematic suggestion that implements an HDB3 encoder using only discrete logic blocks:
Schematic Updates:
  1. Zero Consecutive Count Block:
    • Add a digital counter (constructed from D flip-flops) that increments with each input "0".
    • Use combinational logic (AND/OR gates) to detect when the counter reaches three consecutive zeros so that the circuit knows the next zero could trigger a substitution.
  2. Polarity Memory Block:
    • Add a D flip-flop to store the polarity state.
    • For every input "1" (or a substitution pulse), update the stored polarity so that successive “1” pulses (or normally encoded pulses) alternate between positive and negative.
  3. Pulse Generation & Substitution Logic:
    • For a “1” input:
      • Route the signal through an XOR gate with the stored polarity to create an output pulse of the proper sign.
      • Reset the zero counter.
    • For a “0” input:
      • Use the counter output plus combinational logic (AND/OR) to condition when four consecutive zeros occur.
      • Generate a violation pulse (using additional XOR gates to match the required polarity transition) on the fourth zero while enforcing the rule (B00V pattern).
      • Allow normal zero outputs when fewer than four zeros occur.
Each of these blocks is built solely using basic logic gates and D flip-flops. The overall flow is: incoming serial binary data → zero count and polarity detection → combinational logic that decides whether to provide a normal "0", a polarity-encoded "1", or a violation pulse.
