Abstract
A multiplexer comprises a select circuit having a plurality of OR gates responsive to digital select signals. Transistors within the OR gates are collector dotted and provide a plurality of select circuit outputs to a plurality of AND gates which are also responsive to a plurality of input signals. The collector dotting of the four OR gates of the select circuit provides a multiplexer having a single gate delay of data transmission. The multiplexer consumes less current by having only a single current source for the AND gates.
