What is a Multiplexer (MUX)?

A MUX is a digital switch that has multiple inputs (sources) and a single output (destination). The select lines determine which input is connected to the output. MUX Types
2-to-1 (1 select line) 4-to-1 (2 select lines) 8-to-1 (3 select lines) 16-to-1 (4 select lines)

What is a Demultiplexer (DEMUX)?

A DEMUX is a digital switch with a single input (source) and a multiple outputs (destinations). The select lines determine which output the input is connected to. DEMUX Types
1-to-2 (1 select line) 1-to-4 (2 select lines) 1-to-8 (3 select lines) 1-to-16 (4 select lines)
