Q27
For the following conditions on a 7485 magnitude comparator, what will be the state of each of the three outputs? A0 = 0    B0 = 1    IA < B = 0 A1 = 1    B1 = 0    IA = B = 1 A2 = 1    B2 = 0    IA > B = 0 A3 = 0    B3 = 0    
  • A A = B = 0, A < B = 0, A > B = 1
  • B A = B = 0, A < B = 1, A > B = 0
  • C A = B = 1, A < B = 0, A > B = 0
  • D A = B = 0, A < B = 0, A > B = 0
Answer: Option A
