• Let the Boolean function be f\left(A,B,C\right) =\Pi 1,2,5

• The equivalent sum-of-products expression can be written as f\left(A,B,C\right) =\sum{0,3,4,6,7}

The truth table for the given Boolean function is given in Table 8.5. The given function can be implemented with a 4-to-1 multiplexer with two selection lines. Variables A and B are chosen for the selection lines. The implementation table as drawn with the help of the truth table is given in Table 8.6.
Figure 8.12 shows the hardware implementation.
