The demultiplexer is a combinational logic circuit designed to switch one input line to one of several separate output lines. It is exactly opposite of Multiplexer. In 1-to-4 Demux the input line is connected to one of the 4 output lines depending on the select line input. The below VHDL code is written using with-select-when  statement.

A sequence detector is a sequential circuit that outputs '1' when a particular pattern of bits sequentially arrives at its data input. A sequence detector typically has 1-bit Data Input, CLOCK Input and RESET Input. It generates 1-Bit Output. In this design, circuit receives input at W, generates output on Z. Every change occurs on Positive clock. The design detects occurrence of '1011' (non-overlapping) in the input sequence and produces output '1' after successfully detecting the sequence.

In digital design, a counter is a device which stores the number of times a particular event has occurred, often with respect to a clock signal. The most common type is a sequential digital logic circuit with an input line called the clock and multiple output lines representing the count. The values on the output lines represent a number in the binary or BCD number system. Each pulse applied to the clock input increments or decrements the number in the counter.

If the T input is high, the T flip-flop changes state (i.e. toggles) whenever the clock input is applied. If the T input is low, the flip-flop holds the previous value.

In electronics, a flip-flop or latch is a circuit that has two stable states and can be used to store 1-bit of information. The circuit can be made to change state by signals applied to one or more control inputs and will have one or two outputs. It is the basic storage element in sequential logic. The D flip-flop, which is widely used, also known as a "data" or "delay" flip-flop. The D flip-flop captures the value of the D-input at a definite portion of the clock cycle (such as the rising edge or falling edge of the clock). That captured value becomes the Q output. At other times, the output Q does not change.

The output of a priority encoder is the binary representation of the index of the most significant activated line, starting from zero. They are often used to control interrupt requests by acting on the highest priority interrupt input.
