Three-state buffers

• Output LOW, HIGH, or Hi-Z.

• Can tie multiple outputs together, if at most one
  at a time is driven.

Barrel shifter design example

• n data inputs, n data outputs
• Control inputs specify number of positions to
  rotate or shift data inputs
• Example n 16
• DIN150, DOUT150, S30 (shift amount)
• Many possible solutions, all based on multiplexers
