It may have limited pin output but the devices can be in millions. Circuits are really are not devices however the distinction is circuits needs many devices to perform its operation.

What An electronic circuit is?

An electronic circuit is a network of interconnected electronic components composed of one or more loops coupled that is designed to perform some useful function. The major difference between an electronic circuit and an electrical circuit is that the electronic circuit contains active components that can amplify and/or switch signals and/or nonlinear components that modify signal shapes, while electrical circuits contain only passive linear components in most cases.

What are diodes and transistors?

A diode allows current to pass in one direction only, and has two pins - Anode and Cathode. A transistor is a switch that has three pins - Collector, Base, Emitter, and a current can pass between the collector and emitter if there is a current on the base. A picture of diodes and transistors can be found here (left to right: diode, transistor, transistor, LED - diode that lights up): http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.php?quickkey=zmwz5and0lm&thumb=6


Why is silicon considered a metalliod?

Because it contains features of a nonmetal as well as a metal. Naturally silicon is a semiconductor (depending on circumstances, it can conduct electricity or insulate it). That is why silicon is popular as a component in integrated circuits and other electronic circuitry that involve transistors.

What does a multiplexer look like?

Physically a multiplexer usually looks like a box of some sort. More important is what is inside. The inside of a multiplexer contains a switch or switches, a power supply, and the electronic circuits to manage the system. One link is to informative datasheets for a couple of multiplexer Integrated Circuits from which much can be learned about multiplexer characteristics. There are many, many more kinds of multiplexer ICs.
