Notice that pulldown circuit comprising two series-connected NFETs is the

Let us construct a CMOS circuit for the function

f is on. Let us derive an expression for¯f:

f (A, B, C) = (A + B)C

= (AB) C

= AB + C

= AB + C.

An application of the ideas in Figure 11.26 leads to the circuit in Figure 11.27. We can verify that the circuit indeed correctly implements the logic by developing its truth table and comparing it to that of f.
