Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the creation of timing diagrams for sequential and normal circuits. Participants share resources, tools, and tips related to drawing these diagrams, focusing on both software options and online information sources.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation, Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant seeks websites for information on drawing timing diagrams for circuits.
  • Another participant suggests searching for Mealy and Moore state machine timing diagrams, providing a link to a presentation with basic information.
  • A participant mentions that Microsoft Visio 2003 includes built-in circuit diagram layouts that can be configured or edited.
  • A later reply acknowledges the Visio tip but notes that its schematic library may not align properly, leading users to create their own libraries.
  • One participant emphasizes that the original poster's request was specifically about timing diagrams, not schematics, and critiques the lack of specific information provided for assistance.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express differing views on the usefulness of Visio for timing diagrams and the adequacy of the original poster's request for help. There is no consensus on the best approach or tool for creating timing diagrams.

Contextual Notes

Some limitations include the ambiguity in the original poster's request and the varying opinions on the effectiveness of different software tools for creating timing diagrams versus schematics.

does anybody knows any website that i can get information on how to draw timing diagrams for sequential or normal circuits??
pls help as i have ran out of idea...thanx

I googled mealy moore state machine timing diagram, and got lots of useful hits. Here's an interesting presentation that has lots of the basics for you:

microsoft visio 2003 has built in circuit diagram layouts that u can configure and or edit

Hey, cool tip! I didn't know that.
 
Of course, Visio's schematic library doesn't have symbols with handles that actually line up with one another, so most people end up designing their own library anyway. There are dozens of good schematic-capture programs in the EDA world, but most of them cannot produce schematics that are appropriate for publication in, e.g., a journal article or datasheet.

The original poster, however, was not asking about schematics, but about timing diagrams. Furthermore, he/she didn't really give anyone enough specific information to actually have any hope of helping him/her.
