A Multiplexer, often abbreviated as MUX, is a digital circuit that selects one of several input signals and forwards the selected input to a single output line.
Multiplexers are fundamental components in digital systems used for data routing and signal selection.
Multiplexer is a combinational logic device, which has many input & one output, this output can be selected according to select input. IC-74LS153 is Dual 4:1 MUX. It is a 16-pin dual in-line packaged IC, which has two enable pins (STROBE Active Low). We can design 8:1 MUX using cascading of Two 4:1 MUX.

A 1-bit Comparator is a digital circuit used to compare two binary numbers of one bit each and determine their relationship, such as equality, greater than, or less than.
It is a fundamental building block in digital systems for decision-making and control logic.
Magnitude Comparator is a logical circuit, which compares two Signals A and B and generates three logical outputs, whether A > B, A = B, or A < B.
A one-bit digital magnitude comparator is a simple circuit that compares two single binary digits (0 or 1). It determines whether one bit is greater than, less than, or equal to the other.
A 2-bit Comparator is a digital circuit used to compare two binary numbers of two bits each and determine their relationship,
such as equality, greater than, or less than. It is an essential component in digital systems for decision-making and control logic involving two-bit binary inputs.
A comparator used to compare two binary numbers each of two bits is called a 2-bit Magnitude comparator.
A Parity Checker is a digital circuit used to detect errors in binary data transmission by examining the parity of the received data.
Parity checking is a method of error detection where an extra bit, known as the parity bit, is added to the data stream.
The parity checker compares the received data along with the parity bit and determines whether the transmission is error-free or if errors have occurred during transmission.
A Parity Checker is a crucial component in digital systems for ensuring the integrity of transmitted data. It operates by examining the binary representation of the data and checking whether the number of set bits (binary 1s) is even or odd. The inclusion of a parity bit, an extra bit appended to the data, facilitates this error-checking process.
A Parity Generator is a digital circuit used to generate parity bits for error detection in binary data transmission.
Parity generation involves adding an extra bit, known as the parity bit, to the data stream based on specific rules or algorithms.
The resulting data stream with the parity bit reflects a predetermined parity property, such as even parity or odd parity.
Flip Flop Conversion refers to the process of converting one type of flip-flop into another while maintaining its functionality.
Flip-flops are fundamental building blocks in digital circuits for storing binary data and maintaining state information.
Different types of flip-flops, such as D flip-flops, JK flip-flops, and T flip-flops, have distinct characteristics and applications. Flip-flop conversion techniques allow designers to implement desired functionality using a suitable flip-flop configuration.
Conversion of D Flip Flop to SR Flip Flop
D is the actual input of the flip flop and S and R are the external inputs. Eight possible combinations are achieved from the external inputs S, R and Qp. But, since the combination of S=1 and R=1 are invalid, the values of Qp+1 and D are considered as “don’t cares”. The logic diagram showing the conversion from D to SR, and the K-map for D in terms of S, R and Qp are shown below.
An Up Counter is a digital circuit that counts upwards from a starting value to an ending value, following a predetermined sequence.
It is a type of counter commonly used in digital systems to track the occurrence of events, generate timing signals, or implement sequential logic operations.
An Up Counter is a fundamental component in digital systems used for counting events or occurrences. Unlike a general counter, the Up Counter is designed to increment its count value in a sequential manner, moving from a lower value to a higher value. It is commonly employed in various applications such as timers, frequency dividers, and digital clocks to track and display the passage of time or events.
A Down Counter is a digital circuit that counts downwards from an initial value to a final value, following a predetermined sequence.
It operates in the opposite manner to an up counter, decrementing its count value with each clock pulse applied to its input.
Down counters are commonly used in digital systems for tasks such as countdown timers, event sequencing, and control logic operations.
A Down Counter is a digital circuit that counts events by decrementing its value sequentially. It is characterized by its ability to count downwards, moving from a higher count to a lower count. The Down Counter is widely applied in digital systems for tasks such as countdowns and frequency division. Various flip-flops, such as JK or D flip-flops, can be employed to implement a Down Counter.
An Up-Down Counter is a digital circuit that can count both upwards and downwards, allowing for versatile counting operations in digital systems.
Unlike traditional up counters or down counters, which can only count in one direction, up-down counters can alternate between incrementing and decrementing their count value based on a control signal.
An Up-Down Counter is a digital circuit designed to count events in both an upward and downward direction. It integrates the features of both Up Counters and Down Counters, allowing bidirectional counting. This counter is particularly valuable in applications where the count direction needs to be dynamically adjusted. Implementation can involve using a combination of flip-flops, such as JK or D flip-flops.
A Decade Counter is a digital circuit that counts in base-10 (decimal) sequence, typically from 0 to 9, before resetting to 0 and repeating the counting cycle. It is commonly used in digital systems for applications such as frequency division, timekeeping, and event sequencing, where counting in tens is desirable.
A decade counter, utilizing the IC 7490, embodies a digital circuit designed to sequentially count through the decimal numbers 0 to 9 in binary form. The IC 7490, a 4-bit binary counter, plays a pivotal role in achieving this counting sequence.
A Sequence Detector is a digital circuit that detects the presence of a specific sequence of binary inputs within a stream of binary data.
It is commonly used in digital systems for tasks such as pattern recognition, data parsing, and sequence identification.
Sequence detectors analyze the input data stream and generate an output signal when the specified sequence is detected.
Shift registers are digital circuits capable of storing and shifting binary data serially.
They consist of a chain of flip-flops connected in series, with each flip-flop storing one bit of the data.
Shift registers are widely used in digital systems for tasks such as data storage, serial-to-parallel conversion, parallel-to-serial conversion, and data manipulation.
A shift register is a type of digital circuit using a cascade of flip-flops where the output of one flip-flop is connected to the input of the next. They share a single clock signal, which causes the data stored in the system to shift from one location to the next.
