MUX

MUX stands for Multiplexer, and it is a digital logic circuit that selects one of multiple input signals and forwards it to the output based on the value of a selector signal. The number of inputs in a MUX is typically denoted by 2ⁿ, where n is the number of selector bits (in this case, SEL and MODE).

The inputs of the MUX are labeled as IN1 and IN2, which represent the data signals that can be selected. The SEL and MODE inputs are the selector bits that determine which input signal is forwarded to the output. The combination of SEL and MODE values determines the specific input that will be selected.

The MUX has two outputs: OUT and STAT. The OUT output represents the selected input signal, which is forwarded to the output based on the values of SEL and MODE. The STAT output may represent the status or state of the MUX, and its exact functionality would depend on the specific implementation or design of the MUX.

INPUTS

IN1: This input represents one of the data signals that can be selected by the MUX. It is typically connected to the data source that provides the first input option.

IN2: This input represents another data signal that can be selected by the MUX. It is typically connected to the data source that provides the second input option.

SEL: This input is the selector bit that determines which input signal (IN1 or IN2) will be forwarded to the output (OUT) based on its value. It is typically a binary signal, meaning it can have two possible values, such as 0 or 1.

MODE: This input is another selector bit that can be used to determine which input signal is selected, depending on the specific design of the MUX. Its functionality may vary depending on the implementation.

OUTPUTS

OUT: This output represents the selected input signal, which is forwarded to the output based on the values of SEL and MODE. If SEL and MODE determine that IN1 should be selected, then IN1 will be forwarded to OUT. If SEL and MODE determine that IN2 should be selected, then IN2 will be forwarded to OUT.

STAT: This output represents the status or state of the MUX and its exact functionality may vary depending on the specific implementation or design. It could be used to indicate the current operating mode of the MUX or provide additional information about the MUX’s internal state.
