A priority encoder-includes an encoder for coding an input consisting of a plurality of bits, selectors, respectively provided for bit input terminals of the encoder, for respectively receiving corresponding ones of a plurality of bits of an operand input, each of the selectors including a switch circuit to be controlled by an operand input bit, a carry line connected in series with the switch circuit and connected in series with all of the selectors, a first precharge circuit, connected to a carry line portion on one end side of the switch circuit, for precharging the carry line at a predetermined timing, a first detector which is controlled by an enable signal for designating upper bit priority and detects whether a potential of a carry line portion on an upper bit side of the switch circuit is at a discharge level, a second detector which is controlled by an enable signal for designating lower bit priority and detects whether a carry line portion on a lower bit side of the switch circuit is at a discharge level, and a third detector for detecting whether one of outputs from the first and second detectors and the operand input bit are both in an active state.
