We study a class of Linear Feedback Shift Registers (LFSRs) with characteristic polynomialf(x) =p(x)q(x) wherep(x) andq(x) are distinct irreducible polynomials in 𝔽2[x]. Important properties of the LFSRs, such as the cycle structure and the adjacency graph, are derived. A method to determine a state belonging to each cycle and a generic algorithm to find all conjugate pairs shared by any pair of cycles are given. The process explicitly determines the edges and their labels in the adjacency graph. The results are then combined with the cycle joining method to efficiently construct a new class of de Bruijn sequences. An estimate of the number of resulting sequences is given. In some cases, using cyclotomic numbers, we can determine the number exactly.
