Endec
In electronic communications, an endec is a device which acts as both an encoder and a decoder on a signal or data stream. The combining of these names is a portmanteau.
Examples
- An Emergency Alert System unit is usually an endec, but sometimes just a decoder
- When implementing the Infrared Data Association (IrDA) protocol, an endec may be used between the UART and the optoelectronics[1]
