Solution

The correct answer is c. Decoder.

Here's why:

A binary-coded decimal (BCD) is a class of binary encodings of decimal numbers where each decimal digit is represented by a fixed number of bits, usually four or eight.

A seven-segment display is a form of electronic display device for displaying decimal numerals that is an alternative to the more complex dot matrix displays.

A decoder is a combinational circuit that converts binary information from n input lines to a maximum of 2^n unique output lines. In the case of BCD to seven-segment display decoder, it takes the BCD as input and outputs the relevant signals to display the decimal digit on the seven-segment display.

So, a decoder is used to convert a binary-coded decimal (BCD) input into signals that can display decimal digits on a seven-segment display.
