ABSTRACT:
A variable resistor/bar graph driver multiplexer uses a resistor network for obtaining a variable resistance and a constant current source. The resistor network contains a plurality of switches such that each switch corresponds with a particular resistor when depressed, thereby providing one of a plurality of output voltages. The output voltage is received by a receiver containing a bar graph driver circuit and a plurality of PNP drivers and relay coils corresponding to the switches at the transmitter. The relay coils will turn on depending on the switch pushed at the transmitter. This multiplexer circuit allows a large amount of switch position information and multiple to be transmitted over only two signal lines rather than the large number of lines used in conventional multiplexers. The multiplexer circuit can also be implemented using analog-to-digital converters and digital-to-analog converters at the receiver.
