No. CMOS stands for Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor. Basically, it is a transistor formed by semiconductor bar to which an electrode (gate) attaches. This gate is isolated from the bar. A voltage on the the gate will create an electrostatic field that will prevent the current to circulate along the semiconductor bar.
CMOS transistors are mostly used for digital (binary) application and consume very little current.

CMOS is an acronym for what?
CMOS stands for Complimentary Metal Oxide Semiconductor. CMOS is a technology for constructing integrated circuits. It is widely used in Microprocessors, Micro Controllers, Static RAM. It is also used in Analog circuits such as image sensors. CMOS was patented in 1967 by Frank Wanlass. CMOS is sometimes referred as COS-MOS i.e complementary-symmetry metal-oxide-semiconductor.
Which logic family has lowest power dissipation?
cmos
What is fastest logic family from ecl and cmos?
ecl
Why cmos are ratioless logic device?
because its a balanced device
How do you compare ttl logic and cmos logic?
The logic functions for both families of devices are the same. They differ only in their performance and other characteristics. TTL stands for Transistor-Transistor Logic. Advantages include higher speed, better current handling and relative immunity to static discharge. Disadvantages include more power consumption, output high voltage drops and fixed supply voltages (typically 5 volts). CMOS stands for Complimentary Metal Oxide Semiconductor. Advantages include better voltage output, better input voltage tolerance, variable supply voltages, higher density and much lower power consumption (although this increases with frequency). Disadvantages include sensitivity to static electricity and less current handling capability. Most new product development is in the CMOS family due to its more desirable characteristics. TTL and CMOS families contain many "sub-families" designed with special characteristics for specific applications. For instance, some CMOS families can handle greater current, function at higher speeds or operate at much lower voltages. Texas Instruments has more than 40 families of products under CMOS and TTL.
What are the Disadvantages of cmos over pmos and nmos?
CMOS and NMOS are two logic families. As the name itself indicates, CMOS is complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor technology. It uses both PMOS and NMOS transistors for design. Whereas, NMOS logic family uses only NMOS FETs for design.
What is the functions of cmos to the motherboard?
CMOS (complementary metal oxide semi conductor) is a logic family. A logic family refers to the way of implementing logic. Using this technique, logic gates are realized. The combination of several logic gates forms a digital circuit or integrated circuit (IC). A mother board is also an IC. The technique used to realize it is CMOS logic.
Why do you need a CMOS on motherboard?
You do not need CMOS circuits per se but that's the way many modern components are manufactured. Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) is a technology for constructing integrated circuits. CMOS technology is used inmicroprocessors, microcontrollers, static RAM, and other digital logic circuits. CMOS technology is also used for a wide variety of analog circuits such as image sensors, data converters, and highly integrated transceivers for many types of communication.
Full form of vcc and vdd in TTL and CMOS?
vcc-voltage collector to collector vdd- voltage deran to deran ttl- transister transister logic cmos - complementary metal oxide same conductor
What technology is most often used today to manufacture microchips?
All microchips today are manufactured using CMOS(Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor) technology. CMOS chips require less electricity and produce less heat than chips manufactured using earlier technologies such as TTL(Trasistor-Trasistor Logic).
What is a CMOS socket?
A CMOS socket is to plug a CMOS transistor into. Alternatively, a CMOS socket is to plug a CMOS integrated circuit into. CMOS, by the way, stands for, "Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor".
CMOS is an acronym for what?
CMOS stands for Complimentary Metal Oxide Semiconductor. CMOS is a technology for constructing integrated circuits. It is widely used in Microprocessors, Micro Controllers, Static RAM. It is also used in Analog circuits such as image sensors. CMOS was patented in 1967 by Frank Wanlass. CMOS is sometimes referred as COS-MOS i.e complementary-symmetry metal-oxide-semiconductor.
What is CMOS technology?
Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor(CMOS) is a technology for constructing integrated circuits.
What is cmos stand for?
Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor
What is the CMOS or CCD?
Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor
Which logic family dissipates the minimum power?
Cmos logic family, because it has no resistors attached who consume active power.
How can you create a password to your cmos if your cmos is accepting only one character?
Complementary metal--oxide--semiconductor
