7. In a half adder having two inputs A and B and two outputs, S and Care Sum and Carry bits respectively, the Boolean expression for S and C in terms of A and B is ?

S=A’B+AB’; C = A.B

S=AB+ A’B; C = A + B

S=A’B’ + AB; C = A + B

S=A’ +AB’; C = A + B

Answer: S=A’B+AB’; C = A.B

Explanation:

10. How many flip flops are required to build a binary counter circuit to count from 0 to 1024 ?

6

10

24

12

Answer: 10

Explanation:

Total count = 1024, 2POWER N = 1024 or, 2POWER N = 210 or, N = 10 (no. of flip flops).
