lauraut .suddenly some thing happend and oxygen is avaliable to only three people to use which of three you choose interview here they asked only personal. relating to what you have written in sychometric test and some puzzles

one puzzle is 10 machines are there only one is defective iteams are coming out how do you find out which is defective
second: *
* * how do you reverse this in two transitions
* * *
* * * *----------------------------------- two transistors are connected Vbe is 0.7volts .this is simple ckt.one
transistor is diode equivalent. & asked the o/p across the 2 nd transistor.
2.simple k map ans is Bbar.

-----R------I----------o/p
|___R____ |
in above r is resistence.I is cmos inverter.
then ckt is used for:
a.schmitt trigger b.latch c.inverter d.amplifier

5.simple amplifier ckt openloop gain of amplifier is 4.V in =1v.asked for V x?
amplifdier + is connected to base. - is connected to i/p in between 5k is connected.
from o/p feedback connected to - of amplifier with 15k.this is ckt.

6.resistence inductot cap are serially connected to ac voltage 5 volts. voltage across inductor is given.R I C values are given & asked for voltages across resistence & capacitor.
