Assignment 4
CO 4 Sub: Digital Electronics
In Pursuit of Excellence Sub Code: BOE310
1. Design a sequential circuit with two flip flops A & B and one input x. when x = 0, the state
of the circuit remains the same and when x = 1 the circuit passes through the state transitions
from 00 to 01 to 11 to 10 back to 00 and repeat.
2. Illustrate the working and applications of Asynchronous sequential circuits.
3. Explain the term, Hazard. Define different types of Hazards along with detection and
reduction of Hazards.
4. Illustrate the process of state reduction and assignment in digital circuits.
5. Discuss the process of race free assignment and how is it achieved?
6. Describe the design process of a synchronous sequential circuit.
7. Design a primitive state diagram and state table for a circuit with two asynchronous inputs
(X and Y) and one output Z. This circuit is to be designed so that if any change takes place
on X and Y, Z is to change states. Assume initially that the two inputs never change
simultaneously.
8. Reduce the number of states in the following state table, and tabulate the reduced
state table.
Present State Next State Output
X=0 X =1 X =0 X=1
a f B 0 0
b d C 0 0
c f E 0 0
d g a 1 0
e d c 0 0
f f b 1 1
g g h 0 1
h g a 1 0
