Final answer:
A Mealy machine can be designed to increment by 3 when given an even binary number as input.
Step-by-step explanation:
A Mealy machine is a type of finite state machine that changes its output based on both the current state and the current input. In this case, we want to design a Mealy machine that increments by 3 whenever it receives an even binary number as input.
Here is a possible solution:
- Start with an initial state, let's call it S0.
- If the current input is '0', stay in the same state and output '0'.
- If the current input is '1', transition to a new state, let's call it S1, and output '1'.
- In state S1, if the current input is '0', transition back to state S0 and output '0'.
- In state S1, if the current input is '1', transition to a new state, let's call it S2, and output '1'.
- In state S2, if the current input is '0', transition back to state S0 and output '0'.
- In state S2, if the current input is '1', transition to a new state, let's call it S3, and output '1'.
- In state S3, if the current input is '0', transition back to state S0 and output '0'.
- In state S3, if the current input is '1', transition to a new state, let's call it S4, and output '1'.
- In state S4, if the current input is '0', transition back to state S0 and output '0'.
- In state S4, if the current input is '1', transition to a new state, let's call it S5, and output '1'.
- In state S5, if the current input is '0', transition back to state S0 and output '0'.
- In state S5, if the current input is '1', transition to a new state, let's call it S6, and output '1'.
- In state S6, if the current input is '0', transition back to state S0 and output '0'.
- In state S6, if the current input is '1', transition to a new state, let's call it S7, and output '1'.
- In state S7, if the current input is '0', transition back to state S0 and output '0'.
- In state S7, if the current input is '1', transition to a new state, let's call it S8, and output '1'.
- In state S8, if the current input is '0', transition back to state S0 and output '0'.
- In state S8, if the current input is '1', transition to a new state, let's call it S9, and output '1'.
- In state S9, if the current input is '0', transition back to state S0 and output '0'.
- In state S9, if the current input is '1', transition to a new state, let's call it S10, and output '1'.
- In state S10, if the current input is '0', transition back to state S0 and output '0'.
- In state S10, if the current input is '1', transition to a new state, let's call it S11, and output '1'.
- In state S11, if the current input is '0', transition back to state S0 and output '0'.
- In state S11, if the current input is '1', transition to a new state, let's call it S12, and output '1'.
- In state S12, if the current input is '0', transition back to state S0 and output '0'.
- In state S12, if the current input is '1', transition to a new state, let's call it S13, and output '1'.
This Mealy machine will increment by 3 whenever it receives an even binary number as input.
