Question B1 Figure B1a shows a state diagram for a digital circuit that produces a 3-bit pattern. Assume that a synchronous counter is to be designed that produces the 3-bit output sequence shown in figure B1a. Reset 1 1 2 2 0 Figure B1a (a) Write down a state table showing the binary output sequence of the circuit, listed in the same order that they occur on the state diagram. ) (b) Briefly describe any changes to the state diagram that may be necessary, to make the design realisable. Illustrate your proposed changes by drawing a modified version of the state diagram. (c) Answer the following questions: i. i How many D-type flip-flops would you need to implement the modified diagram? ii. How many possible states are needed to be taken into account? iii. What would be the size of the K-map? ? To avoid the extra work required to solve this problem, instead of solving the original problem, use a simple 4-bit counter which counts from 0 to 9 (white circles shown in Figure B1b), and an encoder to map the counter outputs to the actual states (blue rectangles shown in Figure B1b). 0 1 4 Reset A 52 51 4-bit Counter C Encoder _so 8 7 5 0 Figure B1b Assuming that the 4-bit counter is already available and designed, make use of K- maps simplification technique, and obtain minimised sum of products Boolean equations describing the Encoder. To do that, consider the counter values (while circles in Figure B1b) as input in K-map and assume that any unused states can be treated as 'don't care' states. (d) Write down the equations in your answer book and attach the K-maps and draw the circuit diagram of the encoder. Use the following block instead of the counter: Clk A B B 4-bit Counter O up to 9 -- с с D Rst
