Abstract

A concept of deadlock point of fuzzy sequential circuit is proposed. There are six cases of fuzzy sequential circuits of 1 state and 1 input variables with deadlock points. Examples of each case are shown both in a form of characteristic equation and in a graphical illustration. As fuzzy sequential circuit with 1 state and 1 input variables, D and T fuzzy flip-Hops are also characterized using the proposed concept. Thus one of the four types of D fuzzy Hip-Hops and T fuzzy Hip-flop have a deadlock point 1/2.
