10 Questions
What is the function of a shift register besides storage?
Provide for data movements
How is an n-bit register defined?
A group of 'n' flip-flops capable of storing 'n' bits of information
What is the purpose of logic gates in a shift register?
Control the transfer of information into the register
What is the main characteristic of a shift register?
Data is shifted from one device to another when the circuit is active
What is the primary function of flip-flops in a shift register?
Store the information
What is the function of a p-n junction diode?
A p-n junction diode can be used to convert the alternating current (AC) to the direct current (DC). It also acts as a switch in digital logic circuits.
How does a p-n junction diode behave when forward biased?
When forward biased, the diode allows the current flow.
How does a p-n junction diode behave when reverse biased?
When reverse biased, the diode blocks the current flow.
What are some possible applications of diodes?
Diodes are used in rectification, clamping circuits, clipping circuits for wave shaping, voltage multipliers, and as switches in digital logic circuits.
In what way can a p-n junction diode be used in power supply devices?
A p-n junction diode can be used to convert AC to DC in power supply devices.
