A Mealy machine is similar to a Moore Machine, but with one key difference:

• The input is also connected directly to the output combinational logic.

• This allows the output to change immediately with input changes, making the Mealy machine one clock cycle faster compared to a Moore machine.

Modules

1. Next State Combinational Logic

   • Determines the next state based on the current state and inputs.

2. State Register (Sequential Logic)

   • Stores the current state.
   • Updates on every clock edge.

3. Output Combinational Logic

   • Produces the output based on both the current state and the inputs.
