2. OR gate IC 7432 1
3. NOT gate IC 7404 1
4. IC trainer kit - 1
5. Patch cords - As required
Theory:
Multiplexer:
A multiplexer (MUX) is a combinational circuit that selects binary information from one of
many input lines and directs it to a single output line. The selection of a particular input line is
controlled by a set of selection lines. Normally, there are 2n input lines and n selection lines
whose bit combinations determine which input is selected.
Demultiplexer:
A demultiplexer (DEMUX) basically reverses the multiplexing function. It takes digital
information from one line and distributes it to a given number of output lines. For this reason,
the demultiplexer is also known as a data distributor.
Procedure:
1. Make the connections as per the logic diagram.
2. The last pin in the IC is connected to Vcc 5V, and pin 7 to ground.
3. Apply different combinations of input using switches.
4. Connect output pins to the LED on the training kit.
5. Switch on the power supply and toggle the input states.
6. Record the output based on LED's state and verify the truth table.

Result:
Thus, the multiplexer and demultiplexer were designed using logic gates and were verified
using truth tables.
