How to Implement F1 and F2 Using an 8:1 MUX?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on implementing two functions, F1 and F2, using an 8-to-1 multiplexer (MUX). F1 is defined as AB + AC + BC, while F2 is a more complex expression involving multiple variables. Participants suggest using three select signals (A, B, C) for the MUX, with F1 utilizing specific input combinations and F2 incorporating additional variables like D. One user mentions using Karnaugh maps to derive the MUX configuration, seeking confirmation on whether this method applies to the 8-to-1 implementation. The conversation highlights the challenges of managing two functions within a single MUX setup.

Homework Statement


F1 = AB + AC + BC
F2 = (A + C’ + D’)(B + C + D)(A + B’ + C)

2) Draw the 8-to-1 MUX implementation of F1 and F2; show your work.

I understand doing a 4:1 of one function, but how do you do an 8:1 with two functions?

put three select signals at the top: A,B,C
F1 would take only 1,0s for each output
and for F2, you would need some of inputs in terms of D
 
Alright, let me try it and see. the method that I've used for 4:1 is draw the k-map (2 rows, 4 columns) and then derive the mux from that, is this a similar method? I'm assuming so and that's what I'll try again. Thanks for the quick response by the way.

Alright, here's what I got and I'm pretty sure it's wrong (see the note..the MUX I drew is essentially the MUX for F2, and I'm not sure about what to do with the final value relationship between F1(4) and F1(7)

Thanks again in advance,

-Mikael

Edit: I should probably post a link to my work huh :-) http://img510.imageshack.us/img510/227/1331013oi1.jpg Thanks again
