Abstract
In a first aspect, a first method is provided that includes providing a plurality of select signals and a plurality of input signals for input by a multiplexer. Each select signal is adapted to cause the multiplexer to select a different one of the plurality of input signals for output by the multiplexer when the select signal is in a first logic state. The first method further includes preventing a first of the select signals that is in the first logic state from being provided to the multiplexer until the other select signals are in a second logic state. Number other aspects are provided.
