QUESTION: 1

The _____ circuit enables the generation of the ASCII code when the key is pressed.

Solution:

Answer: c
Explanation: The signal generated upon the pressing of a button is encoded by the encoder circuit into the corresponding ASCII value.

QUESTION: 2

To overcome multiple signals being generated upon a single press of the button, we make use of ______

Solution:

Answer: b
Explanation: When the button is pressed,the contact surfaces bounce and hence it might lead to generation of multiple signals.In order to overcome this we use Debouncing circuits.

QUESTION: 3

The best mode of conncetion between devices which need to send or recieve large amounts of data over a short distance is _____

Solution:

Answer: c
Explanation: The parallel port transfers around 8 to 16 bits of data simultaneously over the lines, hence increasing transfer rates.

QUESTION: 4

The output of the encoder circuit is/are ______
Solution:

Answer: b
Explanation: The encoder outputs the ASCII value along with the valid signal which indicates that a key was pressed.

QUESTION: 5

 The disadvantage of using parallel mode of communication is ______
Solution:

Answer: a
Explanation: The parallel mode of data transfer is costly as it involves data being sent over parallel lines.

QUESTION: 6

In a 32 bit processor, the A0 bit of the address line is connected to _____ of the parallel port interface.
Solution:
QUESTION: 7

 The Status flag circuit is implemented using _____
Solution:

Answer: b
Explanation: The circuit is implemented using the edge triggered D flip flop, that is triggered on the rising edge of the valid signal.

QUESTION: 8

 In the output interface of the parallel port, along with the valid signal ______ is also sent.
Solution:

Answer: b
Explanation: The idle signal is used to check if the device is idle and ready to receive data.

QUESTION: 9

DDR stands for __________
Solution:

Answer: a
Explanation: This register is used to control the flow of data from the DATAOUT register.

QUESTION: 10

 In a general 8-bit parallel interface, the INTR line is connected to _______
Solution:
QUESTION: 11

 The mode of transmission of data, where one bit is sent for each clock cycle is ______
Solution:

Answer: d
Explanation: In isochronous mode of transmission, each bit of the data is sent per each cycle.

QUESTION: 12

The transformation between the Parallel and serial ports is done with the help of ______
Solution:

Answer: c
Explanation: The Shift registers are used to output the data in a desired format based on the need.

QUESTION: 13

 The serial port is used to connect basically _____ and processor.
Solution:

Answer: a
Explanation: The serial port is used to connect keyboard and other devices which input or output one bit at a time.

QUESTION: 14

The double buffer is used for
Solution:
QUESTION: 15

______ to increase the flexibility of the serial ports.
Solution:

Answer: b
Explanation: The ports are made more flexible by enabling the input or output of different clock signals for different devices.

QUESTION: 16

 UART stands for ________
Solution:

Answer: c
Explanation: The UART is a standard developed for designing serial ports.

QUESTION: 17

The key feature of UART is
Solution:
QUESTION: 18

The data transfer in UART is done in ______
Solution:

Answer: a
Explanation: This basically means that the data transfer is done in asynchronous mode.

QUESTION: 19

The standard used in serial ports to facilitate communication is _____
Solution:

Answer: c
Explanation: This is a standard which acts as a protocol for message communication involving serial ports.

QUESTION: 20

In serial port interface, the INTR line is connected to _____
Solution:
