Review Of Concept of Digital System

Combinational Vs Sequential Circuits


Digital circuits can generally be divided into combinational circuits and sequential circuits. Combinational (combinatorial) circuits are those whose outputs are functions of current inputs only. Sequential circuits are those whose outputs depends not only on current inputs, but also previous inputs. Combinational circuit: Outputs = F (current inputs) Sequential circuit: Outputs = F (current inputs, past inputs)

Sequential Circuits

Sequential circuits therefore requires memory elements such as latches, flip-flops.

Mathematical abstraction of sequential system is called FSM, an FSM is a system comprising states, inputs and outputs. It models time as discrete instants at which input or output can change. If the states and output transitions are constrained to occur at pre-defined times such as clock edges, the FSM is known as synchronous. If the states and outputs change in response to input changes, which can occur at any time, the FSM is known as asynchronous.5 IZ 4/29/2012

FSM consists of three blocks.


Combinational Logic for the output. Combinational Logic for the next state. Memory block

FSM are of two types.
