General Description
The 2
12
decoders are a series of CMOS LSIs for
remote control system applications. They are
paired with Holteks 2
12
series of encoders (re-
fer to the encoder/decoder cross reference ta-
ble). For proper operation, a pair of
encoder/decoder with the same number of ad-
dresses and data format should be chosen.
The decoders receive serial addresses and data
from a programmed 2
12
series of encoders that
are transmitted by a carrier using an RF or an
IR transmission medium. They compare the se-
rial input data three times continuously with
their local addresses. If no error or unmatched
codes are found, the input data codes are de-
coded and then transferred to the output pins.
The VT pin also goes high to indicate a valid
transmission.
The 2
12
series of decoders are capable of decod-
ing informations that consist of N bits of ad-
dress and 12-N bits of data. Of this series, the
HT12D is arranged to provide 8 address bits
and 4 data bits, and HT12F is used to decode 12
bits of address information.

Functional Description
Operation
The 2
12
series of decoders provides various com-
binations of addresses and data pins in differ-
ent packages so as to pair with the 2
12
series of
encoders.
The decoders receive data that are transmitted
by an encoder and interpret the first N bits of
code period as addresses and the last 12-N bits
as data, where N is the address code number. A
signal on the DIN pin activates the oscillator
which in turn decodes the incoming address
and data. The decoders will then check the re-
ceived address three times continuously. If the
received address codes all match the contents of
the decoders local address, the 12-N bits of
data are decoded to activate the output pins
and the VT pin is set high to indicate a valid
transmission. This will last unless the address
code is incorrect or no signal is received.
The output of the VT pin is high only when the
transmission is valid. Otherwise it is always
low.
Output type
Of the 2
12
series of decoders, the HT12F has no
data output pin but its VT pin can be used as a
momentary data output. The HT12D, on the
other hand, provides 4 latch type data pins
whose data remain unchanged until new data
are received.

Flowchart
The oscillator is disabled in the standby state
and activated when a logic high signal applies
to the DIN pin. That is to say, the DIN should be
kept low if there is no signal input.
