Digital Electronics Multiple Choice Questions
1) Which number system has a base 16
Hexadecimal
Octal
Binary
Decimal
Answer: a
Explanation: Hexadecimal is a number system with a base 16. We can divide the word HEXA+DECIMAL for better understanding; it means 6 and 10 make 16. It is the easiest way to write and count numbers represented in terms of base 16. There are sixteen distinct digits in the hexadecimal system, it starts from 0, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, A, B, C, D, E and end to F. Where A= 10, B=11, C=12, D=13, E=14, F=15. It is usually represented by 4 bits in binary number system by 8421 code.
2) What is a digital-to-analog converter?
It stores digital data on the computer.
It converts alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC).
It converts electrical power into mechanical power.
It takes the digital data from an audio CD and converts it to a useful form.
Answer: d
Explanation: A "digital-to-analog converter" or DAC refers to an electronic device that converts the digital signals (discrete-time signal) to an analog signal (Continuous-time signal). In other words, we can say that an electronic device converts the signal of 0 and 1 (Binary) into the analog form. For example, the amplitude of the output signal varies according to the input values.
3) The following hexadecimal number (1E.43)16 is equivalent to
(36.506)8
(36.206)8
(35.506)8
(35.206)8
Answer: b
Explanation:
If you want to convert a hexadecimal number into an octal number, the first thing you need to do is convert a hexadecimal number into binary form by writing the binary equivalent of each digit in the form of 4 bits. Once you write the number into binary form, you need to group the binary equivalent in 3 bits, then for each of the three bits, the respective digit is written.
(1E.43)16 = (0001 1110.0100 0011)2
= (00011110.01000011)2
= (011110.010000110)2

39) The Ward- Leonard system is used for controlling the speed of
Three-phase AC motors
Universal motors
Induction motors
DC motors
Answer: d
Explanation: The Ward Leonard system was implemented and used to control the speed of DC shunt electric motors. Previously, it was quite convenient to obtain a variety of speeds and reversing for industrial applications. The system consisted of any prime mover, including an AC motor driving a DC shunt generator. The armature of the DC generator was directly connected to the shunt motor's armature to be controlled. The DC motor had its magnetic field continuously excited while that of the DC generator, the magnetic field could be controlled in intensity and direction. As the prime mover rotated, the field of the DC generator was adjusted as required, hence its armature current-controlled, this current would be adjusted in magnitude and direction, and this, being fed to the armature of the DC motor, would create a driving torque as it reacted with the continuously applied motor field.
40) When the PIV rating of a diode is exceeded
The diode behaves like a thyristor.
The diode behaves like a resistor.
The diode is destroyed.
The diode behaves like a tunnel diode.
Answer: c
Explanation: PIV stands for Peak Inverse Voltage. In other words, PIV is defined as the maximum voltage that can apply to a diode in the reverse direction. Applying higher voltage will cause the diode to destroy. Start conducting current in the normally "OFF" direction, which will damage the diode and often do things you don't like to your circuit. The exact details depend on the circuit design.
We usually select the PIV larger than the largest normal reverse operating voltage in our circuit. If you are making a full-wave rectifier for 220 Vac, you'd typically select a diode with a 240 or more PIV to give some "head room" and "safety factor" on the diode. The minimum should usually be selected like this: round-up from your designed or simulated reverse voltage to the next higher PIV for a diode family that gives you the current you require.
41) Which insulating layer is used in the fabrication of MOSFET?
Silicon Nitride

Explanation: A MOSFET is a field-effect transistor. It depends on the presence of an electric field to control the characteristics of the conductive channel. In the MOSFET, the gate is insulated from the substrate by a layer of silicon dioxide, which is basically glass. The charges accumulate on the gate to create the electric field instead of just having them flow out. So, while silicon is the main constituent of the conductive channel, a thin layer of silicon dioxide is used to insulate the gate.

A full adder is similar to a half adder except that instead of 2 inputs and two outputs, there are now three inputs and two outputs. The inputs are carry-in (Cin), X, and Y. Your outputs remain the same, sum, and carry-out (Cout).
A half adder is typically only useful for "single digit" addition. A full adder implements the half Adder to link multiple full adders together to achieve higher orders of addition. Sixteen full adders in the group allow 16- bit addition.

Maximize AC input variations
To suppress odd harmonics.
Remove ripples from the rectified output.
Minimize DC input and AC output variations.
Answer: c
Explanation:
The main function of the filter in a rectifier circuit is to remove ripples from the rectified output. As we know, rectifiers are primarily used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). There we find a considerable AC component in the output, which is called ripple.
Many electronic systems require pure direct current supply to drive or power them. To make a efficient continuous power supply that gives pure DC output, we need to remove the AC component from the output of rectifiers.

It means that all of the register stages are loaded at a time with new data bits by a single load pulse. In the present condition, the outputs of flip flops will be 1. The value of Preset equals 1 means Q equals 1, this the value of the input is definitely 1.

In the Ring counter, the output of the last flip flops is connected to the first flip flop input, i.e., the ring counter is the cascaded connection of flip flops. It means feedback of the output of the flip-flops is fed to the input of the same flip-flop. It generates equally spaced timing pulses.
56) At which frequency the digital data can be applied to a gate?
Run-time frequency
Propagation Frequency
Operating frequency
AC frequency
Answer: c
Explanation: The operating frequency refers to the frequency at which the communications are being made with the total bandwidth occupied by the carrier signal with modulation.
57) What are the three output conditions of 3- state buffer?
High Impedance, 0, float
Negative, positive, 0
1, Low Impedance, float
High, Low, float
Answer: d
Explanation: The three or tri-state conditions of a three-state buffer are High, Low, and float. A three-state buffer refers to a state buffer that' output can be made high impedance in addition to high or low logic states. It is useful in a condition where you have more than one output on a given line. For example, a multi-drop communication bus. If the 3-state control input is 1, then output is electrically isolated/disconnected or floated. It is as if a very high impedance of 10 Megaohms is inserted between the output pin and internal circuit. Now output pin can be set to 0 or 1 by any other output signal connected to the output.
58) If a transistor has IC = 110 mA and IE = 55 mA, find the value of β?
1
7
9
11
Answer: a
Explanation:
In common emitter, the term β stands for current gain. Current gain refers to the ratio between collector current and base current at a constant VCE.
β = IC/IB
In the common base, DC gain α refers to the ratio of the collector current IC and the emitter current IE.
The equation of dc current gain
α = IC/IE
Now, we can establish the relationship between α and β
β = α/ (1 - α)
Given
Emitter current IE = 55 mA
Collector current IC = 110 mA
α = IC/IE = 110/55 = 2
β = α/ (1 - α) = 2/ (1 - 2)
β = -2
Here the negative value of β indicates its direction, because by convention positive current is always termed as flowing into the device. So, the current gain is negative.
59) In an 8 -bit Johnson counter sequence, how many states orbit patterns are possible?
240
228
232
220
Answer: a
Explanation:
As we know, the total number of states in the Jhonson counter is determined by the given formula
2N = 2 8= 256
Now,
the total number of used states = 2N = 2* 8 = 16
therefore, the total number of unused states = 256-16 = 240
