What is a finite state machine?
Think about how a system can be in one state at a time.
What does the Memory Function Complete (MFC) signal indicate?
What signal tells the CPU it can proceed with the next operation?
What does MFC stand for?
What does the M signal tell the CPU?
True or False: Every instruction is connected to a unique finite state machine.
Think about how instructions are processed in a CPU.
Design a finite state machine for the instruction SUB R1,R2 with at least 5 states, providing the function of each state.
Consider all steps necessary to execute the subtraction operation.
Given delays in control signals could affect the operation of a CPU, how would you mitigate such delays in your FSM design?
Think about techniques that can apply in digital circuits to handle delays.
