Select the property of combinational circuit.
A. Only depends upon present input
B. Only depends upon past input
C. Have no memory
D. Uses flip flop for temporary storage
- A.
A, C
(Correct Answer) - B.
A, B, C
- C.
C, A, D
- D.
B, A
Explanation
Solution
In digital electronics, a Combinational Circuit is defined by specific characteristics regarding its output and storage capabilities:
-
Output Dependency: The output at any instant of time depends only on the levels of the present input variables. It does not consider past inputs.
(This confirms statement A is correct).
-
Memory Requirement: Combinational circuits do not contain any memory elements (like flip-flops or latches) to store information.
(This confirms statement C is correct).
-
Analysis of other statements:
-
B is incorrect because only sequential circuits depend on past inputs.
-
D is incorrect because flip-flops are the building blocks of sequential circuits, not combinational ones.
Since statements A and C are the only true properties, the correct answer is (a).
Correct Option: (a) A, C
