Section “C”

Case Analysis

Reduce the number of states in the following state table and tabulate the reduced state table.

Present State	New State		Output
	X=0	X=1	X=0	X=1
A	F	B	0	0
B	D	C	0	0
C	F	E	0	0
D	G	A	1	0
E	D	C	0	0
F	F	B	1	1
G	G	H	0	1
H	G	A	1	0

From the reduced state diagram in question 18, draw the logical diagram using the required logical gates and required JK flipflops.
