By the application of control logics to switch one of several input lines to a single common output line, we will design a combinational logic circuit known as a multiplexer. The same mux can be physically connected to multiple signal pins at once, as any invocation to setsignalpin method ensures that the previous pin is set to high impedance state before switching to the new one conversely, the same signal pin can be physically connected to multiple ics through a common data line, as setenabled method controls whether the mux io operates.
