Understanding the Multiplexer
A Multiplexer is a crucial device in digital electronics that allows multiple input signals to share a single output line efficiently. It acts like a data traffic controller, selecting one input from many and forwarding it to the output based on control signals.
In practice, a Multiplexer reduces the need for multiple communication lines, saving both cost and space in hardware implementations. By using control signals, it ensures that only the desired input reaches the output at a given time, minimizing signal interference and enhancing system reliability.
