Lab 7 (Multiplexers and Demultiplexers)

This document discusses multiplexers and demultiplexers. It provides background on multiplexers and demultiplexers, including their functions and applications. The document then asks two questions - to find the sum-of-product Boolean function and draw the circuit of a 2-to-1 multiplexer, and to use the sum-of-product function to draw the circuit of a 1-to-4 demultiplexer.

Objectives

- In this lab you will collect the following deliverables:


- Reflect on the similarities and differences between encoders and multiplexers

- Examine the function of a Multiplexer using logic gates

Background
Multiplexer:
● The multiplexer, abbreviated MUX, is a combinational logic circuit which has multiple data inputs, one or
more select inputs and one output.
• It passes the data on one of the inputs, depending on the selection signals, to the output
• Multiplexers have 2s inputs and s selector lines, which determine which of the inputs to output.
• Multiplexers are one of the most widely used combinational circuits, their application areas include: o Data
routing o Operation sequencing o Parallel-to-serial conversion o Waveform generation
• The simplest circuit is the 2-to-1 multiplexer, with the graphical symbol presented in the leftmost figure. Its
functionality is described by the joining truth table. The multiplexer below is only 1-bit wide since bit line is
connected to a single output bit line.

Demultiplexer:
Demultiplexers (DEMUX) have the opposite function of a multiplexer.
• It places the value of a single data input on several data outputs depending on a selection signal
• Usually demultiplexers have s select inputs and 2s outputs
• Since demultiplexers take one input and connect it to many outputs, some of their uses are for
communication (two-way communication usually includes both multiplexers and demultiplexers) and for serial
to parallel converters.
• The graphical symbol for a 1-to-4 demultiplexer is shown below (left) as well as the corresponding 1-to-4
DEMUX truth table.

Q1) Find sum-of-product Boolean function and draw the combinational logic circuit of 2-to-1
MUX?

Q2) Using the sum-of-product Boolean function to find the combinational logic circuit of 1-to-4
DMUX?
