Difference between Multiplexer and Decoder in Tabular Form
The Key Difference between Multiplexer and Decoder is that Multiplexer accepts many inputs and allow only one output. Decoder takes n no of input binary code and converts it into a corresponding output.
Comparison Chart
| Multiplexer | Decoder |
|---|---|
| Multiplexer has n data input lines and one output line. | Decoder has no data input and there is n output line. |
| There are m control lines. | Inputs are the control bits A, B, C, D. |
| Depending upon the status of the control line, data on the particular input line is available at the output. | Only one output is high which depends on the status of the control lines. |
| Converts the unary code to binary code | Converts binary code into unary. |
