    • 4. The high input impedance of MOSFETs:

    • Options
    • A. allows faster switching
    • B. reduces input current and power dissipation
    • C. prevents dense packing
    • D. creates low-noise reactions
    • Discuss
    • 5. How does the 4000 series of CMOS logic compare in terms of speed and power dissipation to the standard family of TTL logic?

    • Options
    • A. more power dissipation and slower speed
    • B. more power dissipation and faster speed
    • C. less power dissipation and faster speed
    • D. less power dissipation and slower speed
    • Discuss
    • 6. As a general rule, the lower the value of the speed?power product, the better the device because of its:

    • Options
    • A. long propagation delay and high power consumption
    • B. long propagation delay and low power consumption
    • Discuss
    • 7. Which logic family is characterized by a multiemitter transistor on the input?

    • Options
    • A. ECL
    • B. CMOS
    • C. TTL
    • D. None of the above
    • Discuss
    • 8. From the following specifications determine the fan-out for the logic family.

    • Options
    • A. HIGH state is 16, LOW state is 8
    • B. HIGH state is 8, LOW state is 16
    • C. HIGH state is 4, LOW state is 8
    • D. HIGH state is 8, LOW state is 4
    • Discuss
    • 9. What is unique about TTL devices such as the 74SXX?

    • Options
    • A. These devices use Schottky transistors and diodes to prevent them from going into saturation; this results in faster turn-on and turn-off times, which translates into higher frequency operation.
    • B. The gate transistors are silicon (S), and the gates therefore have lower values of leakage current.
    • C. The S denotes the fact that a single gate is present in the IC rather than the usual package of 2?6 gates.
    • D. The S denotes a slow version of the device, which is a consequence of its higher power rating.
    • Discuss
    • 10. Why must CMOS devices be handled with care?

    • Options
    • A. so they don't get dirty
    • B. because they break easily
    • C. because they can be damaged by static electricity discharge
