Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a minimal FSM for an instruction set involving 'Load', 'Store', and 'Add' operations. Include considerations for both internal and external signals.

💡 Hint: Focus on how each signal influences the next step in the process.

Question 2

Analyze how an FSM for a conditional jump instruction differs from that of an unconditional jump. Discuss impacts on control logic.

💡 Hint: Consider what added variables influence the conditional FSM.
