Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of analyzing a sequential circuit by signal tracing?

To optimize the circuit for faster operation
To simplify the circuit for easier implementation
To understand the flow of signals through the circuit and identify the sequence of states (correct)
To determine the initial state of the circuit

What is the key difference between a Mealy machine and a Moore machine?

A Mealy machine's output depends on both the current state and the input, while a Moore machine's output depends only on the current state. (correct)
A Mealy machine can have an undefined output, while a Moore machine always has a defined output.
A Moore machine has faster response time compared to a Mealy machine.
A Moore machine's output depends on both the current state and the input, while a Mealy machine's output depends only on the current state.

Why is a clock needed in a clocked Mealy or Moore sequential circuit?

To increase the power efficiency of the circuit
To enable the circuit to operate without any input
To reduce the complexity of the circuit
