What is the main advantage of using MOSFET rather than bipolar transistor circuitry in IC?
Fewer power supply connections are required with MOS ICs.
Higher operating speed than bipolar circuits.
System designers are more familiar with MOS circuitry.
Much greater complexity (more gates and flip-flops in less chip area) than bipolar circuits – therefore better economy.

EEPROM
EPROM
ROM
RAM
Which of the following is not an advantage of CMOS?
Low current requirements
Ability to handle high power levels

Gain of a closed-loop op-amp circuit is determined by:
The op-amp`s external feedback network.
The maximum operating frequency divided by the square root of the load impedance.
The op-amp`s internal feedback network.
Supply voltage and slew rate.
Which type of digital IC is least susceptible to noise?
Emitter-coupled logic

Base-coupled logic
N-channel-coupled logic
Which of the following is not a jump instruction?
JMP (unconditional jump)
JO (jump if overflow)
JB (jump back)
In a RAM:
It`s hard to get data out or put it in
