A priority encoder circuit has four inputs, x₃, x₂, x₁, and x₀. The circuit has three outputs: z, y₁, and y₀. If one of the inputs is 1, z is 1 and y₁ and y₀ represent a 2-bit, binary number whose value equals the index of the highest numbered input that is 1. For example, if x₂ is 1 and x₃ is 0, then the outputs are z = 1 and y₁ = 1 and y₀ = 0. If all inputs are 0, z = 0 and y₁ and y₀ are don’t-cares. 

  

(a) List in decimal form the minterms and don’t-care minterms of each output. 

  

(b) List in decimal form the maxterms and don’t-care maxterms of each output.
