Answer
Answer. a

5. A pulse is applied to each input of a 2-input NAND gate. One pulse goes HIGH at t = 0 and goes back LOW at t = 1 ms. The other pulse goes HIGH at t = 0.8 ms and goes back LOW at t = 3 ms. The output pulse can be described as follows:

(a) It goes LOW at t = 0 and back HIGH at t = 3 ms.
(b) It goes LOW at t = 0.8 ms and back HIGH at t = 3 ms.
(c) It goes LOW at t = 0.8 ms and back HIGH at t = 1 ms.
(d) It goes LOW at t = 0.8 ms and back LOW at t = 1 ms.

Answer
Answer. c

6. A pulse is applied to each input of a 2-input NOR gate. One pulse goes HIGH at t = 0 and goes back LOW at t = 1 ms. The other pulse goes HIGH at t = 0.8 ms and goes back LOW at t = 3 ms. The output pulse can be described as follows:

(a) It goes LOW at t = 0 and back HIGH at t = 3 ms.
(b) It goes LOW at t = 0.8 ms and back HIGH at t = 3 ms.
(c) It goes LOW at t = 0.8 ms and back HIGH at t = 1 ms.
(d) It goes HIGH at t = 0.8 ms and back LOW at t = 1 ms.

Answer
Answer. a

7. A pulse is applied to each input of an exclusive-OR gate. One pulse goes HIGH at t = 0 and goes back LOW at t = 1 ms. The other pulse goes HIGH at t = 0.8 ms and goes back LOW at t = 3 ms. The output pulse can be described as follows:

(a) It goes HIGH at t = 0 and back LOW at t = 3 ms.
(b) It goes HIGH at t = 0 and back LOW at t = 0.8 ms.
(c) It goes HIGH at t = 1 ms and back LOW at t = 3 ms.
(d) both answers (b) and (c)

Answer
Answer. d

8. A positive-going pulse is applied to an inverter. The time interval from the leading edge of the input to the leading edge of the output is 7 ns. This parameter is

(a) speed-power product

(b) propagation delay, tPHL

(c) propagation delay, tPLH

(d) pulse width

Answer
Answer. b

9. Most PLDs utilize an array of

(a) NOT gates
(b) NOR gates
(c) OR gates
(d) AND gates

Answer
Answer. d

10. The rows and columns of the interconnection matrix in an SPLD are connected using

(a) fuses

(b) switches

(c) gates

(d) transistors

Answer
