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.

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.
