What is rise time in cmos?

Rise time is defined as the time it takes for the output of a cmos circuit to rise from 20% to 80% of stable value (vdd) after input has been toggled.


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.


Which logic family would use for a small battery powered circuit CMOS or TTLand why?

For a small battery-powered circuit, CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) is typically the preferred choice over TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic). This is because CMOS technology offers significantly lower power consumption, especially in idle states, which extends battery life. Additionally, CMOS circuits have a higher noise margin and can operate at a wider range of supply voltages, making them more versatile for portable applications.


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.
