  • Question 1
    2 / -0.33
    Consider the equation (146)b​ + (313)​b-2​ = (246)8. Which of the following is the value of b?
    Solution

    (146)b + (313)b-2 = (246)8

    b2 + 4b + 6 + 3(b-2)2 + (b-2) + 3 = 2× 82 + 4×8 + 6

    4b2 – 7b + 19 = 166

     4b2 – 7b – 147 = 0

    4b2 – 28b + 21b – 147 = 0

    4b(b –  7) + 21(b – 7) = 0

    (b – 7).(4b + 21) = 0

    ∴ b = 7 or b = -21 ÷ 4

    Since b cannot be negative or in fraction

    ∴ b = 7

    Alternate Method:

    Substitute and check the result

    b = 7

    (146)7 + (313)7-2 = (246)8

    LHS = (146)7 + (317)7-2

     (146)7 = 1 × 72 + 4 ×71 + 6 × 70 = 49 + 28 + 6 = (83)10

    (313)5 = 3 × 52 + 1 × 5 + 7× 50 = 75 + 5 + 3 = (83)10

    LHS = (83)10 + (83)10 = (166)10  

    RHS = (246)8

    = 2 × 82 + 4 ×81 + 6 × 80

    = 128 + 32 + 6 = (166)10  

    LHS = RHS equal only if b is 7.
  • Question 2
    2 / -0.33

    The enable input is also known as ___________

    Solution

    The enable input is also known as strobe which is used to cascade two or more multiplexer ICs to construct a multiplexer with a larger number of inputs. Enable input activates the multiplexer to operate.

  • Question 3
    2 / -0.33

    The clock frequency of 12 MHz is applied to a cascaded counter of modulus-4 counter, modulus-5 counter and modulus-6 counter.

    Solution

    The overall modulus of the cascaded counter is the multiplication of the modulus of the individual counters.

    Overall modulus (N) = 4 × 5 × 6 = 120

    The clock frequency (fclk) = 12 MHz

    The lowest output frequency \(= \frac{{{f_{clk}}}}{N}\) 

    \(= \frac{{12 \times {{10}^6}}}{{120}} = 100\;kHz\)

  • Question 4
    2 / -0.33

    Which combinational circuit is renowned for selecting a single input from multiple inputs & directing the binary information to output line?

    Solution

    Data Selector is another name of Multiplexer. A multiplexer (or MUX) is a device that selects one of several analog or digital input signals and forwards the selected input into a single line, depending on the active select lines.

  • Question 5
    2 / -0.33

    Which is the major functioning responsibility of the multiplexing combinational circuit?

    Solution

    The major functioning responsibility of the multiplexing combinational circuit is generation of selected path between multiple sources and a single destination because it makes the circuit too flexible. A multiplexer (or MUX) is a device that selects one of several analog or digital input signals and forwards the selected input into a single line, depending on the active select lines.

  • Question 6
    2 / -0.33

    The Elevator door should open if the elevator is stopped and is level with the floor, and the timer has not expired, ‘OR’ if the elevator is stopped and is level with the floor, and a button is pressed. If

    D→ Elevator door opens

    S→ Elevator is stopped

    F→ Level with the floor

    T→ Timer has expired

    B→ Button Pressed

    Which of the Boolean expression represents the above condition:
    Solution

    The elevator door will open in the following two cases:

    Case I: If the elevator is stopped and is level with the floor and the time has not expired

    So we’ll have the representation as:

    Elevator is stopped = E

    Level with the floor = F

    Time has not expired = T̅

    So, the given condition is expressed as –

    X1 = SFT̅

    Case 2: If the elevator is stopped and is level with the floor and a button is pressed.

    Again we have the representation as:

    Elevator is stopped = S

    Level with the floor = F

    Button is pressed = B

    So, the given condition is expressed as;

    X2 = SFB

    Since the door will open in Case-1 ‘OR’ Case-2.

    Therefore, we may express the condition for the elevator door to open as D = X1 or X2, i.e.

    = SFT̅ + SFB
  • Question 7
    2 / -0.33
    If there are p input lines and q output lines for a decoder that is used to uniquely address a byte-addressable 64 KB RAM, then the minimum value of p + q is ______.
    Solution

    Concept: 

    A decoder with k input lines has 2k output lines.

    Calculation:

    The memory is byte-addressable. So 64 KB = 216 B.

    16 × 216 decoders.

    So, the number of input lines (p) = 16

    Number of output lines (q) = 2p = 216 = 65536

    ∴ p + q = 16 + 65536 = 65552 

  • Question 8
    2 / -0.33
    The resolution of a 4-bit counting ADC is 0.5 V. For an analog input of 5.1 V, the digital output of the ADC and the maximum conversion time for 0.5 MHz clock frequency are
    Solution

    The resolution of a 4-bit counting ADC = 0.5 V

    That means the voltage corresponding to each count = 0.5 V

    For an input of 5.1 V, the number counts that counter will count

    \(= \frac{{5.1}}{{0.5}} = 10.2 \approx 1\) 

    Digital output = 1011

    Maximum conversion time = (2n - 1) Tclk

    Clock frequency (f) = 0.5 MHz

    \({T_{clk}} = \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{{0.5\; \times \;{{10}^6}}} = 2\;\mu s\) 

    Maximum conversion time = (24 - 1) × 2 μs = 30 μs  

  • Question 9
    2 / -0.33

    One multiplexer can take the place of ___________

    Solution

    A multiplexer (or MUX) is a device that selects one of several analog or digital input signals and forwards the selected input into a single line, depending on the active select lines. Since many operational behaviour can be performed by using a multiplexer. Whereas, a combinational circuit is a combination of many logic gates which makes the circuit more complex.

  • Question 10
    2 / -0.33

    The word demultiplex means ___________

    Solution

    The word demultiplex means “one into many” and distributor. A demultiplexer sends a single input to multiple outputs, depending on the select lines. It is clear from the diagram:

  • Question 11
    2 / -0.33

    Most demultiplexers facilitate which type of conversion?

    Solution

    A demultiplexer sends a single input to multiple outputs, depending on the select lines. Demultiplexer converts single input into multiple outputs.

  • Question 12
    2 / -0.33

    In a multiplexer the output depends on its ___________

    Solution

  • Question 15
    2 / -0.33

    Why is a demultiplexer called a data distributor?

    Solution

    A demultiplexer sends a single input to multiple outputs, depending on the select lines. For one input, the demultiplexer gives several outputs. That is why it is called a data distributor.

  • Question 16
    2 / -0.33

    In 1-to-4 demultiplexer, how many select lines are required?

    Solution

    The formula for total no. of outputs is given by 2n, where n is the no. of select lines. Therefore, for 1:4 demultiplexer, 2 select lines are required.

  • Question 20
    2 / -0.33

    In a zener diode large reverse current is due to

    Solution

    The large reverse current flow in zener diode is due to rupturing-off or tearing-off of covalent bends within the depletion layer. This phenomena is called zener breakdown phenomena, It is due to large electric field intensity.

  • Question 21
    2 / -0.33

    For thermionic emission

    Solution

    The work function of a metal represents the minimum amount of energy that must be given to the fastest-moving electron at the absolute zero of temperature in order for this electron to be able to escape from the metal. Hence, low work function (Ew) is required for thermionic emission.

  • Question 22
    2 / -0.33

    When forward bias is applied to a junction diode, it

    Solution

    Hence, when forward bias is applied to a p-n junction diode, width of the depletion layer is reduced i.e. potential barrier is decreased

  • Question 23
    2 / -0.33

    The main reason why electrons can tunnel through a p-n junction is that

    Solution

    In a p-n junction tunnel diode, the depletion layer width is negligible and therefore, the charge carriers will be penetrating the depletion layer almost at the speed of light and this property is called tunnelling of charge carriers across the junction.

  • Question 24
    2 / -0.33

    The forbidden energy gap in semiconductors

    Solution

    The energy level diagram for a semiconductor is shown below.

    EG is called “band gap” or "forbidden energy gap” which lies between the valence band and the conduction band.

  • Question 25
    2 / -0.33

    With the increase in temperature, the resistivity of an intrinsic semiconductor decreases. This is because, with the increase of temperature

    Solution

    In an intrinsic semiconductor, as the temperature increases mobility is slightly reduced since mobility of charge carrier is inversely proportional to temperature. This will slightly reduce the conductivity. But, due to temperature effect, large number of covalent bonds are broken which creates electrons and holes and this increases the conductivity by a larger value. As a result of this resistivity is decreased
