What is MUX?
MUX also called multiplexer is a combinational circuit that generates only one output when 2n inputs are provided to it. It is also called as many to one circuit as it selects one output from 2n inputs with the help of n selection lines. The multiplexer is represented as 2n: 1 MUX.
MUX Symbol
The MUX takes 2n inputs and gives 1 output using n number of selection lines. Below is the logic symbol for 2n:1 MUX.
