This page provides a Digital MUX calculator to help you determine the output data rate and channel switching rate of your digital multiplexer. Below, you’ll find the formulas used in the calculator and an example to illustrate its usage.

Digital MUX Formulas

The following formulas are used to calculate the output data rate and channel switching rate of a digital MUX:

Digital MUX Calculator

Example:

Let’s say you have the following inputs:

• INPUTS:
  • Number of Sources = 8
  • Source Data Rate (bytes/sec) = 1000
  • Parallel bits of transmission = 8

Calculation:

Using the formulas above, the calculator will provide the following outputs:

• OUTPUTS:
  • MUX Data Rate (bps) = 64000
  • MUX Channel Switching Rate = 8000
