                                         multiplexers selects a single bit from each of the four inputs. There must be
                                         eight such MUX circuits, each supplying one data bit. The output lines from
                                         each MUX are connected to a corresponding data bus line in the digital
                                         computer (see Chapter 4). Similarly, the output switching (which is often called
                                         demultiplexing, or DEMUX) is performed with a MUX connected in reverse,
                                         as shown in Figure 9.7. The MUX and DEMUX selection is controlled by the
                                         computer. Note that in Figures 9.6 and 9.7, each bit of the digital code is
                                         multiplexed and demultiplexed.
