The document discusses multiplexers and demultiplexers. It explains that a multiplexer is a device that selects one of several input signals and forwards it to a single output line based on select lines. It then provides examples of 4x1 and 8x1 multiplexers and discusses how an 8x1 MUX can be designed using 4x1 MUXes. It also explains that a demultiplexer distributes a single input signal to multiple outputs based on select lines and provides examples of 1x4 and 1x8 demultiplexers.

Multiplexer
▪ A Multiplexer (MUX) is a device in digital electronics that selects one of several input signals and
forwards the selected input into a single line.

▪ The selection of the input line is controlled by additional inputs known as select lines.

▪ SELECT INPUTS (aka ADDRESS LINES)- used by the mux to determine which data inputs will be
switched to the output.
The number of select lines determines how many inputs the MUX can
handle.

A MUX with n select lines can handle 2 n inputs.


Applications of Multiplexer
▪ Used in communication systems to carry multiple signals over a single
data line.

▪ In computers, a MUX helps in sending data from various parts of the


memory to the processor along a single path or connection.

▪ In networking hardware like switches and routers, MUXes are utilized


to route data packets between different parts of a network.

Demultiplexer
• DEMUX does the reverse operation of a Multiplexer (MUX),
distributing one input signal to multiple outputs.

• A Demultiplexer (DEMUX) is a device used in digital electronics that


takes a single input signal and routes it to one of several output lines.
It has single input, ‘n’ selection lines and maximum of
2n outputs.
