Multiplexer and Demultiplexer

This document discusses multiplexers and demultiplexers. It defines a multiplexer as a digital switch that has multiple inputs and a single output, using select lines to determine which input is connected to the output. A demultiplexer is defined as having a single input and multiple outputs, with select lines determining the output. The document demonstrates 4-to-1 and 8-to-16 multiplexers and 1-to-4 and 1-to-8 demultiplexers. It also shows an application using multiplexers and demultiplexers to display a message on 7-segment displays in a power efficient way.

Note : Most Medium Scale Integrated (MSI) DEMUXs , like


the three shown, have outputs that are inverted. This is done
because it requires few logic gates to implement DEMUXs
with inverted outputs rather than no-inverted outputs. 12
Seeing Is NOT Always Believing
• Our lives are filled with
electronic signs that display
the time, temperature, or ball
game score. However, what
we see is not always what is brgprecision.com

really happening.
• In fact for most displays, the
electronic-scoreboard.com

individual display segments


are cycled through so that
only one display is on at any
given time.
• The cycle speed is so fast that digicam-tech.com
nu-mediadisplays.com/signs/time-
the human eye perceives that displays.php

all segments are on.
Simple Message: All Segments On
• The circuit to the right uses
four 7-segment displays to
display the word CIAO. In
this circuit all displays are
continuously illuminated,
each displaying one letter in
the word.
• Though this method works, it
is a VERY inefficient use of
power. To illuminate the
simple message CIAO in this
way, 18 segments must be
continuously on.
• Can you think of another way
to display this message that
would use less power? 14
Multiplexed Displays Segments
Manual Selector Demultiplexer Multiplexed Displays

• In this circuit the display segments


are multiplexed, meaning that only
one display is on at a time.
• To display the entire word, the
displays must be de-multiplexed
using a 1-to-4 DEMUX.
• In this example the select lines that
control the DEMUX are connected to
two switches. You must toggle 00,
01, 10, 11 to see the entire message. (Not Practical) 15
