Baloney. By this definition, OOK Morse is a "time-multiplexed"
system, eh?

Why not just Google this: define: multiplexing

Then try this: define: time multiplexed. And the answer is, "Huh?"

What you mean is that the LEDs are pulsed at some rate and/or duty
cycle. I wouldn't call this, "multiplexing."

Took the words right out of my mouth, Roy. I almost asked that in the
previous post.
