Semi-Finals Short Quiz #1

It is made up of a series of 1’s and 0’s that represent numbers, letters, symbols, or control signals.

• TTL Integrated Circuit

• Digital Signals

• FET

• MOSFET

It means that the waveform is repetitive, at a specific time interval, with each successive pulse identical to the previous one

• Periodic

• Time

• Hertz

• Speed

It uses a single electrical conductor (and a common ground) for the data to travel on.

• Parallel Format

• Binary Format

• Serial Format

• Periodic Format

It is a semiconductor device used to allow current flow in one direction but not the other. As an electronic switch, it acts like a short in the forward-biased condition and like an open in the reverse-biased condition.

• BJT

• FET

• MOSFET

• Diode

It is a semiconductor device that can be used as an electronic switch in digital circuitry. By applying an appropriate voltage at the base, the collector-to-emitter junction will act like an open or a shorted switch

• Transistor

• Diode

• CMOS Integrated Circuit

• MOSFET

It is an electric device containing an electromagnetic coil and normally open or normally closed contacts. It is useful because, by supplying a small triggering current to its coil, the contacts will open or close, switching a higher current on or off.

• Logic State

• Oscilloscope

• Switch

• Relay

It is a digital signal representation that uses several lines or channels to transmit binary information.

• Serial

• Parallel

• Frequency

• Diode

It is the term given to an integrated circuit. It comes from the fact that each integrated circuit comes from a single chip of silicon crystal.

• Silicon

• Crystal-like diodes

• Chip

• Ants

A term used in transistor switching that signifies the collector-to-emitter junction is turned off, or is not allowing current flow.

• Forward-bias

• Reverse-bias

• Saturation

• Cut-off

An integrated circuit containing six inverters on a single DIP package.

• CMOS Inverter

• Hex Inverter

• TTL IC

• Oscilloscope
