Why does a computer need a battery?

CMOS battery of your laptop maintains hard disk, time and date, and other drivers and configuration settings in a CMOS memory. You will see these tiny CMOS batteries connected directly to the laptop’s motherboard.


What is a CMOS processor?

CMOS is a type of material, not a specific type of processor. That is short for Complementary Metal Oxide Silicon. CMOS devices tend to use less power and tend to be faster than their older counterparts. So a CMOS processor is a processor made using the CMOS material. For instance the V20 chip is a 3rd party CMOS variation of Intel's 8088 CPU. The V20 is 10-20% faster and uses less power than the 8088.


What is the difference between TTL and CMOS interms of fan infan outlogic levelspropagation delay?

The power dissipation of CMOS devices is around 100 times lower than the value of power dissipation for TTL. This makes CMOS more suitable for devices to run on battery power and devices allows like mobile phones to have a longer batter life. CMOS devices only use power when switching from one state to the other state (high to low, or low to high) so on they need power for less of the time than TTL devices which use current and dissipate power all the time that they have a power supply.

Yes. The compressor in the AC takes a great deal of power.


What Vcv Stands For in Electronics?

if you are reffering to Vcc than it means- It is the positive power supply used for TTL gates it is nothing but simple dc power supply. if we use CMOS than we use Vdd for indicating power supply these are method for indicating power supply.


Can a ttl chip drive a cmos chip without modification?

A TTL chip can drive a CMOS chip without modification if the CMOS chip is designed to do so. Many large scale CMOS chips, such as microprocessors, have LS (or equivalent) TTL IO pins, so you can drive them directly. In the absence of that, you can use a pull up resistor, but you need to look carefully at fan-in, fan-out, rise time, fall time, and power requirements, in order to assure proper operation. It is best to use chips that are designed for the application, such as TTL to CMOS buffers.


What is a typical advantage of CMOS over TTL?

TTL stands for Transistor-Transistor-Logic. N-MOS is a type of a metal oxide semiconductor technology. TTL is faster, but generally uses more power. MOS based devices are slower, they and they use less power. Speed is an issue when dealing with high speed data processing.


How can the CMOS be cleared on the computer?

There are three ways to clear the CMOS on a computer. You can access the BIOS menu and reset the BIOS settings, you can use the motherboard jumper or clear it by reseating the CMOS battery.

What the function of cmos?

CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) is a technology for making solid state devices such as integrated circuits. People who aren't electrical engineers are probably most familiar with the term from its use in the part of a computer that stores configuration information. CMOS devices use less power to maintain their state than do alternative technologies such as TTL and NMOS, making a CMOS memory chip a good place to keep data that needs to be retained even when the computer is turned off and unplugged (a small battery is used to supply power to the CMOS chip). The CMOS settings include things like the parameters for hard drives (more important in older drives, when autodetection was less common and the number of cylinders, heads, and sectors often needed to be set manually) and information about on-board devices that need to be accessible before the operating system itself is loaded.


Do all systems use the same method to enter CMOS setup?

No, not all systems use the same method to enter CMOS setup. Some systems allow access to CMOS setup by pressing DEL during start up and others by pressing F2.
