A 3-to-8 decoder is used in a digital system. How many AND gates with minimum inputs are required?
A 8 gates with 2 inputs each
B 8 gates with 3 inputs each
C 4 gates with 4 inputs each
D 16 gates with 2 inputs each
Correct Answer:  B. 8 gates with 3 inputs each
EXPLANATION

A 3-to-8 decoder requires 8 output lines. Each output is active for one unique combination of 3 inputs, requiring 8 AND gates, each with 3 inputs (one for each input variable or its complement).

Test
A combinational circuit has 6 input variables. The minimum number of rows required in its truth table is:
A 32
B 64
C 128
D 256
Correct Answer:  B. 64
EXPLANATION

For n input variables, truth table rows = 2^n. For 6 inputs: 2^6 = 64 rows.

Test
Which semiconductor technology provides the lowest static power consumption?
A TTL
B CMOS
C ECL
D JFET logic
Correct Answer:  B. CMOS
EXPLANATION

CMOS has virtually zero static power consumption because complementary transistors prevent direct paths from supply to ground in steady state.

Test
In a BCD (Binary Coded Decimal) counter, what is the maximum count value?
A 9
B 15
C 255
D 1023
Correct Answer:  A. 9
EXPLANATION

BCD represents decimal digits 0-9 using 4 bits. A single BCD counter counts from 0 to 9, after which it resets.

Test
In a multiplexer circuit, if there are 16 output lines, how many select lines are required?
A 3 select lines
B 4 select lines
C 5 select lines
D 6 select lines
Correct Answer:  B. 4 select lines
EXPLANATION

For n select lines, 2^n output lines are possible. Here 2^4 = 16, so 4 select lines are needed. This is a standard 16:1 multiplexer.

Test
A Karnaugh map with 5 variables requires a minimum of how many cells?
A 16 cells
B 32 cells
C 64 cells
D 128 cells
Correct Answer:  B. 32 cells
EXPLANATION

A 5-variable K-map requires 2^5 = 32 cells, typically arranged as two 4x4 grids representing the fifth variable's 0 and 1 states.

Test
Which of the following is the correct relationship for setup time in sequential circuits?
A Setup time is the time data must remain stable after the clock edge
B Setup time is the time data must be stable before the clock edge
C Setup time has no relationship with clock frequency
D Setup time is always equal to hold time
Correct Answer:  B. Setup time is the time data must be stable before the clock edge
EXPLANATION

Setup time is the minimum duration that input data must remain stable before the active clock edge for proper capture by the flip-flop.

Test
A 3-to-8 decoder has how many output lines?
A 3 output lines
B 5 output lines
C 8 output lines
D 11 output lines
Correct Answer:  C. 8 output lines
EXPLANATION

A 3-to-8 decoder has 3 input lines and 2^3 = 8 output lines, one for each possible input combination.

Test
In a J-K flip-flop, when J=1 and K=1, the output will:
A Remain unchanged
B Toggle
C Reset to 0
D Set to 1
Correct Answer:  B. Toggle
EXPLANATION

When J=1 and K=1, the J-K flip-flop toggles its state on each clock pulse.

Test
What is the minimum number of NAND gates required to implement a NOT gate?
A 1 NAND gate
B 2 NAND gates
C 3 NAND gates
D 4 NAND gates
Correct Answer:  A. 1 NAND gate
EXPLANATION

A single NAND gate with both inputs tied together acts as a NOT gate (inverter).
