FSM 

Fig. 2. Internal architecture of a synchronous canonical finite state machine as studied in CSD.

The state register contains a bank of r D_FF memory cells.  r depends on state coding style.

The  FSM, even if structured in three blocks,  is implemented in a single VHDL file (the only time where plan C1 is used in CSD).

Software structure 
  Fig. 3. The key concept in Chapter 3 is adapting the FSM structure to software environment in C language. Our programming style and code organisation will mimic concepts studied in previous chapters.
