Abstract

In a multiplexer, flip-flops for timing control are interposed between a control signal generating circuit and a four-to-one selector, and a flip-flop is interposed between a quarter divider and flip-flops provided for data input. A sum of delay times of the quarter divider and the control signal generating circuit and a setup time of the flip-flops for timing control is merely required to fall within one clock cycle, and therefore an operation speed can be high.
