The Power of Multiplexer: Simplifying Digital Communication
In the world of digital electronics, the Multiplexer (often called MUX) plays a crucial role in managing data efficiently. A Multiplexer is a combinational circuit that selects one input from multiple signals and forwards it to a single output line. This makes it an essential component for optimizing data transmission and reducing hardware complexity.
The Multiplexer works like a digital switch — using control signals, it decides which input should be sent to the output. For example, an 8-to-1 Multiplexer can take eight different inputs but send only one output at a time, depending on the selection line combination.
