Thus, the Board was correct in concluding that the Gorai reference discloses a series multiplexer circuit.

Thus, the Gorai reference is a relevant prior art reference with respect to the '666 patent and clearly discloses a series 2:1 multiplexer circuit.

On the issue of obviousness, Translogic argued that the prior art (Gorai) was not applicable, because it pertained to an algorithm to design logic circuits based on functional parameters, while the patent-in-suit improves a known circuit (i.e., multiplexer).

However, this argument overlooks the fundamental proposition that the series circuits in Gorai are prior art within the public domain and the common knowledge of a person of ordinary skill in the art.
