What else can I help you with?
What devices are generally not configured in the Setup program?
All devices are usually configured in the Setup program.
What devices are generally configured in a PC Setup program?
Drivers, all operating systems and the displays are generally configured in a PC Setup program.
Where is the CMOS RAM typically located?
Memory Modules
What is cmos used for?
C MOS is the complementary metal -oxide semiconductor which is used to hold dates, time and system setup parameters.
Why is CMOS so important in modern electronics devices such as IPod's?
low power
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.
Why CMOS is important?
In many devices, the technology is enabled in some of the memory to store the date, time, and other important information. This is due to the very low power consumption of CMOS.
What is a device that contains firmware that provides support for all hardware devices and features on a system?
CMOS
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 are three purpose accomplished by the motherboard bios?
To manage simple devices (system BIOS)To start the computer (startup BIOS)To change settings on the motherboard (CMOS setup).
Why must CMOS devices be handled with care?
CMOS devices must be handled with care due to their sensitivity to electrostatic discharge (ESD), which can easily damage the delicate circuitry. Additionally, they are vulnerable to contamination from oils or dirt on fingers, which can affect performance. Proper grounding and the use of ESD protection measures are essential during handling to ensure the integrity and functionality of the devices.
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.
