CSE 140 Midterm 2
Prof. Tajana Simunic Rosing
Winter 2018


● Do not start the exam until you are told.
● The examination will be graded out of 100, with 10 extra bonus points.
● Write your name and PID at the top of every page. Do not separate the pages.
● Turn off and put away all your electronics.
● This is a closed-book, closed-notes, no calculator exam.
You may only refer to one 8 ½ x 11” page of your handwritten notes.
● Do not look at anyone else’s exam.
● Do not talk to anyone but an exam proctor during the exam. If you have a question,
raise your hand and an exam proctor will come to you.
● You have 80 minutes to finish the exam. When the time is finished, you must stop.
● Write your answers in the space provided.
● To get the most partial credit, clearly and neatly show all steps of your work.

1. Design a pattern recognizer that outputs a 1 when it detects among 4 input bits zero or
more 0s followed by zero or more 1s - 0011, 0000, and 1111 are some examples.
Here is sample output of the pattern recognizer.
Time ->
Input: 0110001011001110100101111
Output: XXX0001000000110000000011

a. (5pts) Use a shift register to recognize the pattern. Complete the circuit using a
minimum number of inverters and two-input logic gates, connected only to the Q
outputs of the FFs. Assume there are no setup or hold violations. Note that
values flow from left to right.

5. (25pts) The following HLSM reads two eight-bit numbers, A and B, from two 10x8 register
files and increments a counter if either of them is zero when a start signal is given. This process
is done ten times, one time for each word in the register. The final output is provided in
ResultReg.
a. (9pts) There are nine missing components (states/controls) in the HLSM below.
Fix what is needed so that the HLSM works correctly.
