Multiplexers and Demultiplexers

A multiplexer is a circuit that selects one of several input signals and outputs the selected signal. It has multiple input lines but only one output line. A demultiplexer has one input but multiple outputs. Multiplexers are used to combine signals and demultiplexers are used to separate signals. A digital multiplexer uses logic gates to select one of several digital input signals based on the state of control inputs. Common multiplexer configurations include 2-to-1, 4-to-1, and 8-to-1 multiplexers depending on the number of inputs and control lines.

Multiplexers and Demultiplexers

Multiplexers and Demultiplexers


• A multiplexer is a circuit that accept many input but give
only one output. A demultiplexer function exactly in the
reverse of  a multiplexer, that is a demultiplexer accepts
only one input and gives many outputs. Generally
multiplexer and demultiplexer are used together,
because of the communication systems are bi
directional.
• Multiplexer means many into one. A multiplexer
is a circuit used to select and route any one of
the several input signals to a signal output.
Mutliplexer:
• Multiplexer handle two types of data that is analog
and digital. For analog application, multiplexer are
built of relays and transistor switches. For digital
application, they are built from standard logic gates.
• The multiplexer used for digital applications, also
called digital multiplexer, is a circuit with many input
but only one output. By applying control signals, we
can steer any input to the output. Few types of
multiplexers are 2-to-1, 4-to-1, 8-to-1, 16-to-1
multiplexer
Mutliplexer:
• Following figure shows the general idea of a
multiplexer with n input signal, m control signals and
one output signal.

Multiplexer

•A Multiplexer is a combinational circuit that selects one of the 2n input signals


•(D0, D1, D2, ……, D n ) to be passed to the single output line Y.
Multiplexer
Example 1: 2x1 Mux
A 2x1 Mux has 2 input lines (D0 & D1) , one select input (S), and one output line (Y).

IF S=0, then Y= D0
Else (S=1) Y= D1

D0

MUX Y
D1 S

A 2 X 1 Multiplexer

Thus, the output signal Y can be expressed as:


Y  S D 0  S D1
Multiplexer
Example 2: 4x1 Mux: A 4x1 Mux has 4 input lines (D0, D1, D2, D3), two select inputs
(S0 & S1), and one output line Y.

IF S1S0=00, then Y= D0
IF S1S0=01, then Y= D1
IF S1S0=10, then Y= D2
IF S1S0=11, then Y= D3
Thus, the output signal Y can be
expressed as:

minterm minterm mintermminterm


m0 m1 m2m3
Obviously, the input selected to be passed to the output depends on the minterm
expressions of the select inputs.

Understanding 4-to-1
Multiplexer
• The 4-to-1 multiplexer has 4 input bit, 2 control bits,
and 1 output bit. The four input bits are D0,D1,D2 and
D3. only one of this is transmitted to the output y. The
output depends on the value of AB or S0S1 which is
the control input. The control input determines which
of the input data bit is transmitted to the output.
• For instance, as shown in fig. when AB(S0S1) = 00, the
upper AND gate is enabled while all other AND gates
are disabled. Therefore, data bit D0 is transmitted to
the output, giving Y = Do
