What is the primary difference between combinational and sequential logic?
What is the primary difference between combinational and sequential logic?
- Combinational logic depends only on inputs, while sequential logic depends on both present inputs and past behavior (correct)
- Combinational logic depends on past behavior, while sequential logic depends only on present inputs
- Combinational logic has memory, while sequential logic does not
- Sequential logic has memory, while combinational logic does not
