EXPERIMENT NO. 7

AIM: To design and simulate 2:1 MUX using SymicaDE tool.

TOOLS USED: SymicaDE

THEORY: Multiplexing is the generic term used to describe the operation of sending one or
more analogue or digital signals over a common transmission line at different times or speeds
and as such, the device we use to do just that is called a Multiplexer.
The multiplexer, shortened to “MUX” or “MPX”, is a combinational logic circuit designed to
switch one of several input lines through to a single common output line by the application of
a control signal. Multiplexers operate like very fast acting multiple position rotary switches
connecting or controlling multiple input lines called “channels” one at a time to the output.
Multiplexers, or MUX’s, can be either digital circuits made from high speed logic gates used to
switch digital or binary data or they can be analogue types using transistors, MOSFET’s or
relays to switch one of the voltage or current inputs through to a single output .
