1.6.5.2.2. Selector Multiplexers
Selector multiplexers have a separate select line for each data input. The select lines for the multiplexer are one-hot encoded. Intel® Quartus® Prime commonly builds selector multiplexers as a tree of AND and OR gates.
Even though the implementation of a tree-shaped, N-input selector multiplexer is slightly less efficient than a binary multiplexer, in many cases the select signal is the output of a decoder. Intel® Quartus® Prime synthesis combines the selector and decoder into a binary multiplexer.
