Derive the State Machine from Input Sequence

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on deriving a state machine from a given input sequence (x=010001010010010011010) and its corresponding output sequence (z=001000000001001000001). The state machine consists of three states: A, B, and C, with the initial state being A. The user attempted to find a distinguishing sequence and identified 0100 as a potential candidate but struggled to derive the state table. The question also addresses whether the state machine is a Mealy or Moore type, indicating a need for clarity on state machine classifications.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of state machines, specifically Mealy and Moore types.
  • Familiarity with input-output sequences in state machines.
  • Knowledge of distinguishing sequences in automata theory.
  • Basic skills in constructing state tables.
NEXT STEPS

Homework Statement


This is a 3 state machine with one input variable. The input given for x produces the output sequence for z. The machine starts in state A.
I am asked to derive the state table.

x=010001010010010011010
A
z=001000000001001000001

Homework Equations



The Attempt at a Solution


I know that you first try to find the distinguishing sequence. I tried 2 and 3 number sequences and failed. I got a 4 number distinguishing sequence (0100), but it doesn't really help.
A(0010)= 0000
B(0010)= 0001
C(0010)= 1001 => C(0) =1
x=010001010010010011010
A A B C
z=001000000001001000001
I appreciate the help guys!

is this a mealy or moore state machine?
Or can it be either?
