Digital Electronics:: Logic Families and Their Characteristcs
41. How can ECL have both a NOR and an OR output?
  • ECL does not have this feature.
  • They are simply the inverse of each other.
Show Answer
42. Which logic family is characterized by a multiemitter transistor on the input?
  • ECL
  • CMOS
  • TTL
  • None of the above
Show Answer
43. How is the speed–power product of a logic family determined?
  • The propagation delay in s is multiplied by the power dissipation in mW.
  • The propagation delay in ms is multiplied by the power dissipation in W.
  • The propagation delay in ns is multiplied by the power dissipation in mW.
  • The propagation delay in ns is multiplied by the power dissipation in W.
Show Answer
44. The problem of the VOH(min) of a TTL IC being too low to drive a CMOS circuit and meet the CMOS requirement of VIH(min) is usually easily overcome by:
  • adding a fixed voltage-divider bias resistive network at the output of the TTL device
  • avoiding this condition and only using TTL to drive TTL
  • adding an external pull-down resistor to ground
  • adding an external pull-up resistor to VCC
Show Answer
45. How does the 4000 series of CMOS logic compare in terms of speed and power dissipation to the standard family of TTL logic?
  • more power dissipation and slower speed
  • more power dissipation and faster speed
  • less power dissipation and faster speed
  • less power dissipation and slower speed
Show Answer
46. What should be done with unused inputs to a TTL NAND gate?
  • let them float
  • tie them LOW
  • tie them HIGH
Show Answer
47. The TTL HIGH level source current is higher than the LOW level sinking current.
  • TRUE
  • FALSE
