Questions and Answers

What is the function of a shift register besides storage?

  • Act as a clock signal generator
  • Perform arithmetic operations
  • Provide for data movements (correct)
  • Control the power supply to the circuit

    • How is an n-bit register defined?

  • A group of 'n' logic gates connected in series
  • A single flip-flop capable of storing 'n' bits of information
  • A group of 'n' flip-flops capable of storing 'n' bits of information (correct)
  • A group of 'n' transistors connected in parallel

    • What is the purpose of logic gates in a shift register?

  • Act as memory units for the data
  • Control the transfer of information into the register (correct)
  • Generate clock signals for the circuit
  • Perform arithmetic operations on the stored data
