Section: ELECTRONICS:
1.A logic ckt is given and asked to identify the configuration.
ANS: XOR.
2.multi vibrator with nor gates is given
ANS: astable multi sqr wave opt.
3.4 stage ripple counter with delay(f/f) 10msec. How much time it takes
for a state to change.

ANS:shift register.
5.if the address bus is 20bits.then the memory space is :
ANS:1MB.
6.filtering can be done with:
i)capacitor,ii)inductor,iii)both,iv)none.
ANS:both.
7.two progs are given. one satrts counting frm 0 to MAX and the other
stars frm MAX to 0. which one executes fast.
ANS:may be Max to 0.Think of it.
8.problem using three registers.
ANS: register A is multiplied by 11.
9.the config that is worst effected by low CMMR
ANS:Non inverting amplifier.
---- Another 6 questions are there. simple.
Networks:
--------
1.which is not used for error correction :
ANS :bit stuffing.
2.which of the following is not fctn of datalink layer:
ANS : Encryption.
3.voltage levels of rs232c:
ANS :+12,-12.
4.which of the following is not used for client/server.
i)RPC,ii)TCP/IP,iii)MESSAGEQs,iv)None
ANS: none.
5.
Database:
--------
1. which of the following is true.
ANS:the primary key in DataBAse design is very important.
2. ANS : SQL is a Non procedural query langauge.
3. ANS : Time for insertion is more than time for modification.
4
5.
Compiler/algo/ds:
----------------
1.Data structure used to impliment a menu:
ANS :doubly linked circular linked list.
2. some regular expression is given:WaW'.
ANS : may be it is context free grammar.
3.
4.
5.
OS:
--
1.the feature of real time os is:
ANS:fast context swithing.
2.ANS:os impliments protection with the help of hardware(like virtual
addressing in 386/286 etc).
C programming:
-------------
some small c progs are given asked to tell the function/errors etc.
one of the qstn(last in the paper) is an invalid statement.
finish of all these very fast and think about those others. they are
simple only.
1.int a=2,b=3,c=4;
printf("a=%d,b=%d\n",a,b,c);
ANS:2,3
2.for(i=1;i<10;++i,printf("%d",i));+-
ANS:compiling error.
3.whole logic is given in func s but they are working properly.
the main logic is :
char *string;
string=malloc(5*sizeof(char));
strcpy(string,"hello");
printf("%s",string); /* func to print */
ANS:hello and some extra characters until uccerence of \0 .
4. in a system integer takes 3bytes and char takes 1byte .......
struct smthing{
int a;
char b[4];
};
ANS:sizeof struct smthing is 7 bytes.
5.
Interview:
It depends on the member.
1.Mr.Deep asks archirect of 586/486/386/286 etc. otherwise DS,OS,C,TCP/IP.
2.Mr.Abhik asks about compiler design and TCP/IP.
Suggestions in attempting :
aptitude test:
1.attempt easy questions first.
Technical test :
1.Attempt C programs first.
2.Network,os,datastuctures,compilers etc.
3.Electronics and electrical.
