Multiplexer

A multiplexer is a combinational circuit that has 2n input lines and a single output line.
Simply, the multiplexer is a multi-input and single-output combinational circuit. The
binary information is received from the input lines and directed to the output line. On the
basis of the values of the selection lines, one of these data inputs will be connected to
the output.

Unlike encoder and decoder, there are n selection lines and 2 n input lines. So, there is a
total of 2N possible combinations of inputs. A multiplexer is also treated as Mux.

There are various types of the multiplexer which are as follows:

2×1 Multiplexer:
In 2×1 multiplexer, there are only two inputs, i.e., A 0 and A1, 1 selection line, i.e., S 0 and single
outputs, i.e., Y. On the basis of the combination of inputs which are present at the selection line
S0, one of these 2 inputs will be connected to the output. The block diagram and the truth table of
the 2×1 multiplexer are given below.

Truth Table:

The logical expression of the term Y is as follows:

Y=S0'.A0+S0.A1

Logical circuit of the above expression is given below:


4×1 Multiplexer:
In the 4×1 multiplexer, there is a total of four inputs, i.e., A 0, A1, A2, and A3, 2 selection
lines, i.e., S0 and S1 and single output, i.e., Y. On the basis of the combination of inputs
that are present at the selection lines S0 and S1, one of these 4 inputs are connected to
the output. The block diagram and the truth table of the 4×1 multiplexer are given below.

8 to 1 Multiplexer
In the 8 to 1 multiplexer, there are total eight inputs, i.e., A0, A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, and A7, 3
selection lines, i.e., S0, S1and S2 and single output, i.e., Y. On the basis of the
combination of inputs that are present at the selection lines S0, S1, and S2, one of these 8
inputs are connected to the output. The block diagram and the truth table of the 8×1
multiplexer are given below.

16 to 1 Multiplexer
In the 16 to 1 multiplexer, there are total of 16 inputs, i.e., A 0, A1, …, A16, 4 selection lines,
i.e., S0, S1, S2, and S3 and single output, i.e., Y. On the basis of the combination of inputs
that are present at the selection lines S0, S1, and S2, one of these 16 inputs will be
connected to the output. The block diagram and the truth table of the 16×1

De-multiplexer
A De-multiplexer is a combinational circuit that has only 1 input line and 2 N output lines.
Simply, the multiplexer is a single-input and multi-output combinational circuit. The
information is received from the single input lines and directed to the output line. On the
basis of the values of the selection lines, the input will be connected to one of these
outputs. De-multiplexer is opposite to the multiplexer.

Unlike encoder and decoder, there are n selection lines and 2n outputs. So, there is a
total of 2n possible combinations of inputs. De-multiplexer is also treated as De-mux.

There are various types of De-multiplexer which are as follows:

1×2 De-multiplexer:
In the 1 to 2 De-multiplexer, there are only two outputs, i.e., Y 0, and Y1, 1 selection lines,
i.e., S0, and single input, i.e., A. On the basis of the selection value, the input will be
connected to one of the outputs. The block diagram and the truth table of the 1×2
multiplexer are given below.

Truth Table:

The logical expression of the term Y is as follows:

Y0=S0'.A
Y1=S0.A
