Can demux be used as decoder?

No. A Decoder decodes an encrypted input signal to multiple output signals from one format to another format. A De-Multiplexer routes an input signal to multiple output signals. A Decoder has ‘n’ input lines and maximum of 2n output lines.

What does a demultiplexer do?

The function of the Demultiplexer is to switch one common data input line to any one of the 4 output data lines A to D in our example above. As with the multiplexer the individual solid state switches are selected by the binary input address code on the output select pins “a” and “b” as shown.

What is 74LS157?

The LSTTL / MSI SN54 / 74LS157 is a high speed Quad 2-Input Multiplexer. Four bits of data from two sources can be selected using the common Select and Enable inputs. The four buffered outputs present the selected data in the true (non-inverted) form.

What is difference between Mux and demux?

Multiplexer refers to a type of combinational circuit that accepts multiple inputs of data but provides only a single output. The demultiplexer refers to the type of combinational circuit that accepts just a single input but directs it through multiple outputs. A Multiplexer performs conversion from parallel to serial.

What is the use of Mux and demux?

The demultiplexer receive the output signals of the multiplexer and converts them back to the original form of the data at the receiving end. The multiplexer and demultiplexer work together to carry out the process of transmission and reception of data in communication system.

What is a 2 1 mux?

A 2-to-1 multiplexer consists of two inputs D0 and D1, one select input S and one output Y. Depending on the select signal, the output is connected to either of the inputs. Since there are two input signals, only two ways are possible to connect the inputs to the outputs, so one select is needed to do these operations.

How many numbers of MUX in ic74157 have?

Here 74157 is a quad 2 to 1 multiplexer with one select input (S) i.e. it contains four 2:1 multiplexers.

What is encoder IC?

An encoder IC is manufactured to encode digital data from one format type or code to another that can accept multiple inputs and generate multi-bit output. Their primary functions are speed, security, standardisation by shrinking the size.

What are the decoders?

A decoder is a multiple-input, multiple-output combinational logic circuit. It converts the n bit data inputs into the coded 2n outputs. It decodes the information hidden by the encoder. While decoding, the decoder generally places logic 1 at one of its outputs to create the exact code.
