Enable inputs

Enable inputs

􀂃Many devices have an additional enable input, which “activates” or “deactivates” the device.

􀂃We could design a 2-to-1 multiplexer with an enable input that’s used as follows.

—EN=0 disables the multiplexer, which forces the output to be 0. (It does notturn off the multiplexer.)
—EN=1 enables the multiplexer, and it works as specified earlier.

􀂃Enable inputs are especially useful in combining smaller muxes together to make larger ones, as we’ll see later today.
