Consider the following combinational function block involving four Boolean variables $$x, y, a,$$
$$b$$ where $$x, a, b$$ are inputs and $$y$$ is the output.
Which one of the following digital logic blocks is the most suitable for implementing this function?

Consider the following Boolean expression for $$F:$$
$$F\left( {P,\,Q,\,R,\,S} \right) = PQ + \overline P QR + \overline P Q\overline R S.$$
