CPN CPE Computer Engineering Practice Questions - CPN CPE - Computer Engineering (CEN) Track (Nigeria) Exam

What is the primary difference between a Mealy machine and a Moore machine in sequential logic design?

A Mealy machine's outputs depend on both the current state and the current inputs, whereas a Moore machine's outputs depend only on the current state. A Moore machine's outputs depend on both the current state and the current inputs, whereas a Mealy machine's outputs depend only on the current state. A Mealy machine is always asynchronous, whereas a Moore machine is synchronous. A Moore machine requires fewer states than a Mealy machine to implement the same sequence detector.

Correct Answer:

A Mealy machine's outputs depend on both the current state and the current inputs, whereas a Moore machine's outputs depend only on the current state.
