Overview
The Parallel Path Selector is an Analog Block that selects a path for an incoming signal, based on the Parallel Gate Line Signal.
(Small Recap from Parallel Gates) The Parallel Gate Line Signal is a signal applied at the either end of a Parallel Gate Line and is used by all Parallel Gates in the line.
Based on this signal, the Parallel Path Selector determines whether to pass the input signal at the Front to the output signal at the Back, or redirect it to the next Parallel Path Selector on the Left or Right in the Parallel Gate Line.
When the Parallel Gate Line Signal is low (0), the signal from the Front is sent to Pin Mark A. The signal for Pin Mark B is then provided by an Alternate Input read from the Parallel Path Selector on the Left side, if any of the Pin Marks are on the Right side. If any of the Pin Marks are on the Left side, the signal is instead provided from the Parallel Path Selector on the Right side.
When the Parallel Gate Line Signal is high (>0), the signal from the Front is sent to Pin Mark B. The signal for Pin Mark A is then provided by an Alternate Input read from the Parallel Path Selector on the Left side, if any of the Pin Marks are on the Right side. If any of the Pin Marks are on the Left side, the signal is instead provided from the Parallel Path Selector on the Right side.
This behavior allows for controlled signal shifting, enabling players to construct Shift Registers.
Configuration
- By right-clicking the gate, you can configure the outputs and alternate input.
- Either Pin Mark A or Pin Mark B will always face the Front of the gate, while the other pin mark will face the Left or Right.
- The Alternate Input will be on the side opposite to the non-front Pin Mark.
