ABSTRACT:
A system and method for implementing a state machine including a plurality of states, the state machine configured to transition from a present state to a next state in response to input. One embodiment of the system includes a plurality of state elements, each of the plurality of state elements representing one of the plurality of states of the state machine, each of the plurality of state elements receiving an on signal, an off signal, and a synchronizing signal, each of the state elements outputting a state value, each of the plurality of state elements further including a logic element to store a temporary state value, wherein the state value is updated by the temporary state value in response to the synchronizing signal, and wherein the state value of each of the plurality of state elements is synchronously updated in response to the synchronizing signal.
