MODEM:

  • Modem stands for Modulator-demodulator.
  • It converts the analog signals from the transmission wires into digital signals which can be read by the computer devices (modulation).
  • Then conversion of digital signal into analog and extracting out the useful information (demodulation) takes place.

Important Points

Multiplexers:

  • A multiplexer is a combinational circuit.
  • A multiplexer is Many to one data selector.
  • A multiplexer selects one of the many data available at its input depending on the bits on the select line.
  • For 2n inputs, there are n select lines that determine, which input is to be connected to the output.
