Key Concepts
- -- Multiplexer
- A multiplexer is a device that selects one of many input signals and forwards the selected input into a single line.
- -- Demultiplexer
- A demultiplexer is a device that takes a single input signal and selects one of many output lines to forward the signal to.
- -- Combinational Circuit
- A combinational circuit is an electronic circuit whose output is a pure function of the present input only.
- -- Boolean Function
- A Boolean function is a function that produces binary output based on the combination of binary inputs.
