For starters, CMOS stands for Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor. CMOS is used in a form of non-volatile memory. To be non-volatile means means that it will not lose the data, even if the power supply dies or the power goes out. The CMOS battery also has a cool little trick it does - it tells time for your computer!
That's right, at the bottom right (or upper right, possibly, depending on your liking of the Windows task bar) where it states what time it is, that is powered by your CMOS battery. Interestingly enough, it involves half-life, the process is really complicated and beyond my reach, however the substance that makes this half-life possible is completely natural! Thank you, nature!

How can find battry ampreas?
By using an Ammeter in series
How do you change the data in the cmos?
Data stored in CMOS can be altered using a CMOS editor program. CMOS commonly stores the computer's BIOS and its content can be changed using the inbuilt BIOS settings utility.

Where can i get password for bios?
Using a manufacturers backdoor password to access the BIOS Use password cracking software Reset the CMOS using the jumpers or solder beads. Removing the CMOS battery for at least 10 minutes Overloading the keyboard buffer Using a professional service
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 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".
Why you not use other than cmos?
Because ROMs are designed using MOS technology.
Does cmos setup offer the option to set a supervisor password?
Most CMOS allow the administrator to add or edit a supervisor password. Enter your CMOS using whichever key your motherboard needs to open the CMOS (this will be displayed on the first screen of bootup), then find the general settings tab or a name similar and press enter on the password field. After that, enter your password and when you boot to your CMOS it will ask for your password.

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).
