Description:
A single light can be controlled by any one of three switches. Design a digital system that controls the light as follows:
One switch is the master on/off switch. If it is down, the light is off. When the master switch is up, a change in the position of one of other switches causes the light to change.

State
Introduced to help memorize the complete input/output sequences Usually number of states are finite Itself is also a time function Two types of states are defined:
present state (PS): s(t) next state (NS): s(t+1)

State Description of Sequential Systems

A sequential system can be specified as a finite state machine (FSM) by specifying
output function: z(t) = H(s(t), x(t)) state transition function: s(t+1) = G (s(t), x(t))
Inputs x(t) Outputs z(t) Present State s(t)

Output Function State transition Function

Next State s(t+1)

Example 7.3 - Serial Decimal Adder

Inputs: x(t), y(t) {0,1, , 9} Outputs: z(t) {0, 1, , 9} State: c(t) {0, 1} Initial State: c(0) = 0 Functions:
State transition function: c(t+1) =
1 if x(t)+y(t)+c(t) 10 0 otherwise

Output function z(t) = (x(t)+y(t)+c(t)) mod 10

Example 7.4: Odd/Even Detector

Given a system whose input has two values a and b, and whose output also has two values, 0 and 1. The output at time t is 1 if the number of b s in the input x(0,t) is even, and 0 otherwise.
PS Inputs x(t) Inputs: x(t) {a,b} a b Outputs: z(t) {0, 1} Even Even, 1 Odd, 0 State: s(t) {Even, Odd} Odd Odd, 0 Even, 1 Initial State: s(0) = Even NS, Outputs z(t) t 01234567 x(t) a b b a b a b a z(t) 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1

How to Select State Names

Use integers as state names Example: A modulo-64 counter
Input: x(t) {0,1} Output: z(t) {0,1,,63} State: s(t) {0,1,,63} Initial State: s(0) = 0 Function:
* Transition function: s(t+1) = [s(t)+x(t)] mod 64 * Output function: z(t) = s(t)

Y. He @ 8/1/13

How to Select State Names (Cont d)

Use state-vector approach:
state is represented by a vector s = (sn-1, , s 0)

Example:
A sequential system that counts the occurrence of 55 different events. When the count of event I is a multiple of 100, the output is z(t) = i, otherwise, z(t) = 0 Input: x(t) {1, 2, , 55} Output: z(t) {0, 1, 2, , 55} State: s(t) = (s55,,s1), si {0,1,,99} State: s(0) = (0,0,,0) Functions:
* Transition function: si(t+1) = * Output function:
CSM51A-Sec.1 Su 13

[si(t)+1] mod 100 if x(t) = i si(t) otherwise

z(t) =

if x(t) = i and si(t) = 99 0 otherwise

L11.21

Case Study 1: Finite Memory Systems

A sequential system has finite memory of length m is z(t) depends only on the last m input values:
z(t) = F(x(t-m+1), t))

Example 7.12:
z(t) =
p q if x(t-3,t) = aaba otherwise

Finite memory of length four

All finite-memory machines are FSMs Not all FSMs are finite-memory
z(t) =
1 0 if number of 1 s in x(0, t) is even otherwise

Case Study 2: Pattern Detector

Detect sub-patterns in the input sequence Two types:
overlapped and non-overlapped

Example:
Input: x(t) {0,1} Output: z(t) {0,1} 1 Function: z(t) =
0 if x(t-3,t) = 1101 otherwise

Case Study 3: Controller

A FSM that produces control signals as the states are traversed. Control signals determine actions performed by other parts of the system. Two types
Autonomous
* State transitions follow a fixed sequence of states, independent of any inputs except the clock.

Non-autonomous
* The transition is decided by external inputs

State Minimization
Motivation:
High-level design may generate many redundant states Fewer states may mean fewer state variables To reduce the complexity and cost

Basic concept:
Two states are equivalent if they are impossible to distinguish from the outputs of the FSM, i. e., for any input sequence the outputs are the same
* (1) Output must be the same in both states * (2) Must transition to equivalent states for all input combinations

Basic Methods:
Table matching Implication Chart

Table Matching Procedure - Overview

Starting with the state table Step 1: Row matching with respect to outputs Step 2: Rename the newly partitioned classes Step 3: List their next state transitions by using new names Step 4: Check if partitions are same by column matching within classes
If no, go back to Step 1 If yes, The states are minimal

Write the state table for the minimal states
