    Instruction decoder does the exact operation of an encoder… it undoes the encoding so that we can retrieve the original information. Combination of circuit happens that converts binary information from input lines to maximum of 2times of the lines. Instruction decoder removes bits which are stored in the instruction register and gradually decodes it informs the CPU to commence its work and then enables the components for the operation.

    Instruction decoder is embedded in the CPU that converts the bits stored in the instruction register. The CPU who has microcode in them which forms micro-instruction into the control signals that eventually control the other parts of the CPU. A CPU with 8 registers can use up to 3-to-8 logic decoders which are embedded in the instruction decoder. After that they select maximum two source registers from the register file to give the information to arithmetic logic unit (ALU) and also to the destination register to accept the total output of the ALU. Instruction Decoder acts like a dictionary in which it tells the exact meaning of the instruction.
