Abstract
In general, digital circuits with storage capability, or “memory”, are called sequential circuits, while digital circuits without storage capability are called combinational circuits. The outputs of a sequential circuit not only depend on the current inputs, but also depend on the past conditions, or “history”, of the inputs. Sequential circuits are also called finite state machines (FSM’s).
