    • 8. Refer to the keyboard encoder in figure (a). Sometimes when the 5 key is pressed, the system attached to the keypad does not respond. The 5 input on the 74147 is monitored with a digital storage scope while repeatedly pressing the 5 key, and the waveform in figure (b) is obtained; the P above the trace indicates the points at which the technician pressed the key. What is most likely wrong with the circuit?


    • Options
    • A. The switches on the 5 key are intermittent; the contacts need to be cleaned or the switch replaced.
    • B. The pull-up resistor connected to the 5 key is bad and should be replaced.
    • C. The common ground connection at the bottom of the 0 key has a bad solder connection; repair the connection.
    • D. The 74147 is intermittent, possibly due to high temperature, and should be replaced.
