c) Phase shift must be 0 or 2Ï€

d) All the above

Answer: d)

 

10. If the input to the NOT gate is A = 1011, its output is

a) 0100

b) 1000

c) 1100      

d) 0011

Answer: a)

Solution:

For NOT Gate output Y = á¾¹

Here A = 1011 . ∴ Y =0100

 

11. Which one of the following represents forward bias diode?


Answer: a)

 

12. The given electrical network is equivalent to


a) AND gate        

b) OR gate

c) NOR gate        

d) NOT gate

Answer: c)

Solution:


 

13. The output of the following circuit is 1 when the input ABC is


a) 101

b) 100

c) 110

d) 010

Answer: a)

Solution:

Y = (A+B)C

For Y = 1; C must be 1

The input ABC is 101

Y= (1 + 0).l = 1
