I was getting confused with the indexing, so needed to draw a couple of examples to see what the patterns were.

The geometric and algebraic series indexing shows up in adder trees and count-ones (bit-error-rate counters) too.

The indexing is much more obvious if you count from the output back to the input.

For the original poster's demux application, the indexing order would probably be reversed, to reuse the same scheme.

Cheers,
