In summary, the conversation discusses building an AND gate and a NOT gate using a 2X1 multiplexer with 2 inputs, 1 select, and 1 output. The person is stuck on the concept and is unsure of how to consider fixed inputs. Hints are given to help clarify the situation and provide guidance for the solution.

Homework Statement


Hi,
How to build a AND gate using a 2X1(2 inputs, 1 select,1 output) multiplexer?
The same for a NOT gate?
I am stuck on it!
thank you


Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution


Sorry I tried but I am confuse about what are consired as input if we decide to fix one input.

If you decide to fix one of the inputs, it'll still be considered an input, just an input that always has the same value.

HINT1: How many inputs has an AND gate? You shouldn't need to fix any inputs on your MUX (at least, not to 0 or 1)
HINT2: How many inputs has a NOT gate? You will need to fix MUX inputs.

Thank you
I will work on it!
 

What is a multiplexer?

A multiplexer, or MUX, is a device that selects and combines multiple input signals into a single output signal.

Why is multiplexer universality important?

Multiplexer universality is important because it allows for the efficient routing and management of data in complex systems. It also reduces the number of physical components needed, which can save space and cost.

What is multiplexer universality?

Multiplexer universality refers to the ability of a single multiplexer to perform the functions of multiple, specialized multiplexers. This is achieved through the use of programmable logic, allowing for different configurations and operations to be performed by a single device.

How is multiplexer universality achieved?

Multiplexer universality is achieved through the use of programmable logic devices, such as Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) or Complex Programmable Logic Devices (CPLDs). These devices can be configured to perform the necessary logic operations for a given application, making them adaptable and versatile.

What are some real-world applications of multiplexer universality?

Multiplexer universality is used in a variety of industries and applications, including telecommunications, data centers, aerospace and defense, and consumer electronics. It is also commonly used in digital signal processing, data routing, and control systems.
