I have a DSPT dual single pole double throw analog switch (Dual
channel 2:1 mux/demux). Now I have some questions regarding analog
switches?

You do?

1. How do these differ from digital mux which I am faimilar with
(which is basically a selector between multiple inputs based on some
select signals)? Whats strange is the schematic of the circuit uses
digital signals TTL as inputs/outputs? I read some where that some
analog switches allow digital signals?

You did?

And why shouldn't they? After all, a digital signal _is_ an analog
signal.

2. The part says its a switch (mux/demux). Does that mean the inputs
and outputs can be swapped. Basically is it like a physical connection
between 2 set of pins based on a select line. Because from my
understanding thats what a switch is? more over it says its mux/demux?

It does?

I hope someone can clarify this.

Your question belongs in sci.electronics.basics, and you could help
by posting the manufacturer and a part number.

In any case, if it's described as a mux/demux then it must be
bidirectional since a multiplexer (mux) will connect one of several
inputs to a single output, while a demux will connect a single input
to one of several outputs.

That means its input(s) and output(s) can be swapped.
