Analog decoder
A analog decoder converts an analog encoding to another encoding type.

Analog-to-binary decoder
An analog-to-binary decoder (aka "a2b decoder") converts an analog encoding into a binary encoding.

…

Analog-to-tally decoder
An analog-to-tally decoder (aka "a2t decoder") converts an analog encoding (signal strength) into a tally encoding (N lines on).

Analog-to-unary decoder
An analog-to-unary decoder (aka "a2u decoder") converts an analog encoding into a unary encoding (Nth line on).


 * Opposed-Power A2U Decoder


 * Powers a line of 16 redstone dust with a power level equal to the input analog power level from one side, and (15 - input) from the other, leaving only a single dust unpowered.


 * Grizdale's decoder transmits the input's power level to both sides simultaneously by taking the input in the middle of the circuit and using the same number of comparators getting to either side. The output can be shortened to display fewer values by reducing the number of items in the subtraction comparator's input container (when shortening the comparator lines, make sure each dust has a comparator before or after it so it doesn't power an adjacent block with an output torch, as is purposefully done with the 0 output torch).


 * The ARL decoder transmits the input's power level to both sides simultaneously by using a single segment of analog repeater line. The schematic shows how you would typically build the circuit on the ground, but you can also drop the output line and torches 1 block to make the circuit only 2-high (reducing the circuit size to 7&times;16&times;2, or 224 block volume).

 * NOR-Gate A2U Decoder


 * Splits the input signal into two lines of redstone dust, with one line at one less power than the other, and compares the power level of the two lines at each potential input to see where the input's power level drops to 0.
