State Table
-
it’s a type of truth table where the columns are
| Present State | x | Next State | Y | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Q_a | Q_b | Q_a+1 | Q_b+1 | |||
-
So it’s the present state of the outputs and then the next state with x as the inputs
- this gives us an idea on what the diagram will be like (input and output flows)
