Hi,
A multiplexer has selectors and so it will have only one output.But a demultiplexer has only one input and how does it have many outputs?

A demultiplexer has selectors also. On a 74xx138 they are labeld A, B, and C. On this chip there are also three enables called G1, G2A, and G2B.
G1 must be high and G2A and G2B must be low.

The demultiplexer has a single data input, but n address inputs, therefore the number of outputs is 2^n. The address selects the output that will follow the data input.
