Explanation

A demultiplexer (DEMUX) takes a single input and routes it to one of many possible outputs based on select lines. This function of distributing one data signal to multiple destinations makes it a 'data distributor.' A multiplexer does the opposite (many-to-one), while an encoder converts data to a different code format.
