  1. 1 to 11 gates
  2. 12 to 99 gates
  3. 100 to 10,000 gates
  4. More than 10,000 gates
  5. None of above

Answer = A 
Explanation: No Explanation
5) What advantage do ICs have over discrete devices due to their greater complexity ?
  1. Smaller size
  2. Higher Reliability
  3. Lower cost
  4. All of above
Collection From: www.cs-mcqs.blogspot.com
Answer =D 
Explanation: ICs can also combine analog and digital circuits on a single chip to create functions such as A/D converters and D/A converters. Such circuits offer smaller size and lower cost, but must carefully account for signal interference.
6)  A subtractor is usually not present in computer because ?
  1. It is expensive
  2. It is not possible to design it
  3. The adder will take care of subtraction
  4. None of above
Collection From: www.cs-mcqs.blogspot.com
Answer = C 
Explanation: A subtractor can be designed using the same approach as that of an adder.
7)  A chip having 150 gates will be classified as  ?
  1. SSI
  2. MSI
  3. LSI
  4. VLSI
Collection From: www.cs-mcqs.blogspot.com
Answer = C 
Explanation: Latent semantic indexing (LSI) is an indexing and retrieval method that uses a mathematical technique called Singular value decomposition (SVD) to identify patterns in the relationships between the terms and concepts contained in an unstructured collection of text.
8) Pseudo instructions are ?
  1. assembler directive
  2. instruction in any program that have no corresponding machine code instruction
  3. instruction in any program whose presence or absence will not change the output for any input
  4. None of above
Collection From: www.cs-mcqs.blogspot.com
Answer = A 
Explanation: Pseudo instructions are simply the assembly instructions that do not have a direct machine language equivalent.
9) Programming in a language that actually controls the path of signals or data within the computer is called ?
  1. micro programming
  2. system programming
  3. assembly programming
  4. machine language programming
Collection From: www.cs-mcqs.blogspot.com
Answer = A 
Explanation:No Explanation
10) Which of the following is not typically found in the status register of micro processor ?
  1. overflow
  2. zero result
  3. negative result
  4. none of above
Collection From: www.cs-mcqs.blogspot.com
Answer = D 
Explanation: A status register or flag register  is a collection of flag bits for a processor. The status register is a hardware register which contains information about the state of the processor

 
 SET-10

 
1) The advantage of single bus over a multi bus is ?
  1. low cost
  2. flexibility in attaching peripheral devices
  3. high operating speed
  4. A and B
Collection From: www.cs-mcqs.blogspot.com
Answer = D 
Explanation: However single bus costs low and it is easy to attach peripheral devices in single bus but multibus  architecture have a great advantage in speed and of course, will affect performance also
2) In serial communication, an extra clock is needed ?
  1. to synchronize the devices
  2. for programmed baud rate control
  3. to make efficient use of RS-232
  4. None of above
Collection From: www.cs-mcqs.blogspot.com
Answer = B 
Explanation: No Explanation
3) In which of the following instruction bus idle situation occurs ?
  1. EI
  2. DAD rp
  3. INX H
  4. DAA
Collection From: www.cs-mcqs.blogspot.com
Answer = B 
Explanation: No Explanation
4) The addressing used in an instruction of the form ADD  X  Y is?
  1. absolute
  2. immediate
  3. indirect
  4. index
Collection From: www.cs-mcqs.blogspot.com
Answer = A 
Explanation: The effective address for an absolute instruction address is the address parameter itself with no modifications.
5) The speed imbalance between memory access and CPU operation can be reduced by ?
  1. cache memory
  2. memory interleaving
  3. reducing the size of memory
  4. A and B
Collection From: www.cs-mcqs.blogspot.com
Answer = D 
Explanation: No Explanation
6) Which of the following does not need extra hardware for DRAM refreshing ?
  1. 8085
  2. Motorola - 6800
  3. Z - 80
  4. None of these
Collection From: www.cs-mcqs.blogspot.com
Answer = C 
Explanation: No Explanation
