Verilog - Mealy To Moore And State Diagram

Hey, i got a question and i want to know if i did right.

This is the Verilog code and i need to show the state diagram. this is what i did.

THE CODE

And this is the state. I think.

and the next question is, how can i convert this code from Mealy to Moore?

a clue please. a reference to youtube video or article. TY.

EDIT

This is the Moore code

can someone tall me if this is correct?

  • Ok i see. And i`m doing this because this is the work we asked to do.

    So i added the Moore Diagram, is this ok? and now i can convert it?

    Looking at your Moore code, you shouldn't have two matching entries in a case statement, which Verilog might let you get away with, but you shouldn't do it.

    But the design is inherently a Mealy state machine (dependent on the state and x), so I'm not sure why you want/need to turn it into a Moore machine.

      What do you mean by "two matching entries"? you mean when i write

      begin y = 0

      and then y=1 for example? if does, how can i fix it?

        No, I mean you shouldn't have two identical entries in a case statement (two s1, two s2, two s3).

        But as I said, there's no good way to fix this because the basic design is inherently a Mealy machine. What is your goal here and why do you want to change it into a Moore machine?
