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.

• S0, S1, S2 represent different states of the machine.
• Arrows indicate transitions between states.
• The notation 1/0 means:
  • Input = 1
  • Output = 0
