ABSTRACT:
A finite-state machine (30), which receives its input on INPUT lines (32) and generates its output on OUTPUT lines (34), is implemented with a content-addressable memory (46), whose output is the address of the location containing the data word presented to the content-addressable memory as its input. The content-addressable memory's input data word is the concatenation of the finite-state-machine input and the content-addressable-memory output, while the content-addressable-memory output is the output of the finite-state machine.
