What is a finite state machine (FSM)?
Think about it as a model that changes states.
What is the main function of a hardwired control unit?
It operates without using software.
What does a hardwired control unit use to generate control signals?
Consider the terms fixed and software.
True or False: A finite state machine can be in an infinite number of states.
Think about the word 'finite'.
Design an FSM that handles three conditions in a simplified traffic light system: green for go, yellow for caution, and red for stop.
How do real traffic systems manage state transitions?
In a microprocessor, describe how a condition in the control flags can lead to a different execution path through an FSM.
