Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

What is a multiplexer used for?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the role of a selector in a menu.

Question 2

Easy

How do you calculate how many multiplexers you need?

πŸ’‘ Hint: N is the desired inputs and n is the current inputs.

Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What is the purpose of cascading multiplexers?

  • To combine outputs
  • To manage more inputs than one multiplexer can handle
  • To reduce power consumption

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider why we would need more than one multiplexer's capability.

Question 2

True or False: The number of multiplexers needed can be calculated with the formula 2^n - N.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember the variables represent desired and available inputs.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have a scenario where you need to design a multiplexer handling 64 inputs. How would you approach cascading this solution using 16-to-1 multiplexers?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about what the cascading design entails.

Question 2

Reflect on what happens when multiple multiplexers are enabled at once. Why is this undesired?

πŸ’‘ Hint: How does the enable function tie into this?
