1 I. Motivation & Examples Output depends on current input and past history of inputs. State embodies all the information about the past needed to predict current output based on current input. State variables, one or more bits of information. If the current State of the circuit is known at time t, what is the state of the circuit at time (t+1) Answer: the next state depends on current state and input 1

2 I. Motivation & Examples Describing sequential circuit State table For each current-state, specify next-states as function of inputs For each current-state, specify outputs as function of inputs State diagram Graphical version of state table Example 1: TV channel control Let the channel # represent the state of the circuit Input are up/down on the channel control 2 on u u u u u d d d d d u: up d: down

3 I. Motivation & Examples Example 2: A sequential process that inputs an n-bit binary string and outputs 1 if the string contains an even number of 1 s SLN 1 (final output) 0111 SLN 0 (final output) What represents the state of the circuit? Case1: State as the number of 1 s read so far (possibly infinite # of states) 3 Case 2: Two states E and O E (even): if the # of 1 s read so far is even O (odd) if the # of 1 s read so far is odd

10 II. General Representation Some important questions How to represent the states of a sequential circuit? How to memorize the (current and next) states? How to determine the next of the circuit? How to determine the outputs as a function F(state) of current state only? as a function F(input,state) of both input and current state? The concept of STATE is very important 10

11 II. General Representation Memory component How do we represent the states? Memory component are used as state variables Goal: Memorize the current state of the circuit How are memory components implemented? Latch, Flip-flop are 1-bit memory component 11

17 II. General Representation Bistable element: summary If (Q=0), then input to Not gate 2 is 0 ==> Output of Not gate 2 is 1 (Q_L =1) ==> The input of Not gate 1 is 1, so output of Not gate 1 is 0 ==> Stable output (Q=0) and (Q_L = 1) If (Q=1), then input to Not gate 2 is 1 ==> Output of Not gate 2 is 0 (Q_L =0) ==> The input of Not gate 1 is 0, so output Not gate 1 is ==> Stable output (Q=1) and (Q_L = 0)

19 S-R Latch. 19 Set operation: SR > 10, set the device output to Q=1 regardless of current value of Q Reset operation: SR > 01, set the device output to Q=0 regardless of current value of Q Hold operation: SR > 00 or > 00, Device output are the same as last output values Only one input value changes Possible input changes: SR: > > > > 00. Input SR = 11 is not allowed ( Both NOR gates output 0, i.e Q=Q =0 )
