Quiz submission record for quiz4-1-2 at Tue Jul 13 09:21:18 2004: Your Answer for Question 1: I'm not exactly sure by what the question means when it says behave as expected. But there is a "clk-to-q" delay and a hold time between a flip flop's input to output. So if they are connected as described above, the 2nd flip flop's input might come in a bit late, every two clock cycles, due to the delays of the first flip flop. So the output Q at the 2nd flip flop might look like: 00110011... Your Answer for Question 2: Well an answer machine is one, because it needs to determine what ring state it is, to wait for three rings until it starts up. One other state machines could be a 1 minute timer that loops, 0->1...->99->0. Lastly, another FSM could be a fan control. It takes temperature of the room as input. And switches between the states of heat and air conditioning. Your unique submission ID is quiz4-1-2-cs61c-av-1089735678-2824.
