State Partition Method for State Minimization is also powerful as the Implication Chart Method and better than Row Equivalence method. In this technique, the states are partitioned into groups based on the possibility that they can be combined. Lets consider the example state table as shown in Table 1 for state minimization using state partition …
Implication Chart Method for State Minimization is very popular for reducing the steps of an FSM and it is more machine friendly method than Row Equivalence Technique. In this method, a chart is prepared to find the equivalent steps. The implication chart is shown in Figure 1. States are written along the x-axis as , …
Row Equivalence Method for State Minimization is a very simple technique to reduce number of states of an FSM. In the row equivalence method, it is checked that rows of a state table are equivalent or not. Here, a comparatively strict definition of state equivalence is used. The conditions for two states and to be …
In the previous post FSM Design, we have discussed design of Mealy and Moore state machines using Verilog. State minimization is important if we want to reduce number of states in a complex FSM which has many redundant states. If the number of states are reduced then number of bits required for state assignment will …
Contents for FSM design are Sequence Detector using Mealy Machine Sequence Detector using Moore Machine Serial Adder Vending Machine FSMs, an important category of sequential circuits, are used frequently in designing digital systems. From the daily used electronic machines to the complex digital systems, FSMs are used everywhere. For example, in a station the vending …
