Introduction to microelectronics

Quiz Questions:

   
1. MICROELECTRONICS is defined as that area of technology associated with and applied to the realization of electronic systems made of extremely small electronic parts or elements.
       
    True
    False
       
2. The earliest electronic circuits were fairly simple. They were composed of a few tubes, transformers, resistors, capacitors, and wiring. As more was learned by designers, they began to increase both the size and complexity of circuits.
       
    True
    False
       
3. Another major problem with vacuum-tube circuits was the method of wiring components referred to as POINT-TO-POINT WIRING. Does the Figure 1-2 show an excellent example of point-to-point wiring?
       
   

Yes

   

No

       
4. Figure 1-5 describes a
       
   

Hybrid integrated circuit

   

Film Integrated Circuits

   

Monolithic Integrated Circuits

       
5. Two types of monolithic fabrication discussed are the
       
   

Diffusion Method & Epitaxial Method

   

None

       
6. Figure 1-14 denotes a
       
   

Vacuum evaporation oven

   

Evaporation mask

       
7. A MICROCIRCUIT MODULE is an assembly of microcircuits or a combination of microcircuits and discrete components packaged as a replaceable unit.
       
   

True

   

False

       
8. ____________is a production method to prevent unwanted interaction between elements within a chip.
       
   

Isolation

   

Desolation

       
9. The methods of interconnecting circuitry in multilayer printed circuit boards are the
       
   

Clearance Hole

   

Plated through Hole

   

Layer Build up

   

All the three

       
10. An INTEGRATED LOGISTICS SUPPORT PLAN (ILSP) determines the maintenance level for electronic assemblies, modules, and boards for each equipment assigned to an activity.
       
   

True

   

False

       
11. Early electronic systems could be completely checked-out with general-purpose electronic test equipment (GPETE), such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, and signal generators. Using this equipment to individually test the microelectronics components in one of today's very complex electronic systems would be extremely difficult if not impossible.
       
   

True

   

False

       
12. A CAT (Centralized Automatic Test System) is an on-line system that continuously monitors the performance of electronic systems, predicts system performance trends, and isolates faults to removable assemblies.
       
   

True

   

False

       
13. (GPETE) is an acronym for GENERAL-PURPOSE ELECTRONIC TEST EQUIPMENT.
       
   

True

   

False

       
14. The repair station power unit is a standardized system that provides controlled soldering and desoldering of all types of solder joint configurations. Is this what is shown in figure 2-1.
       
   

Yes

   

No

       
15. Hand tools in figure 2-10 represent
       
   

Pliers, tweezers and dental tools

   

Pulleys, tweezers and dental tools

       
16. ROSIN or RESIN FLUXES are the only fluxes to be used in electronic work.
       
   

True

   

False

       
17. Figure 3-8E represents a

Fork terminal

       
18. ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) can damage or destroy many types of electronic components including integrated circuits and discrete components.
       
   

True

   

False

       
19. Three generally accepted methods of solder connection removal involve the use of Solder wick, a manually controlled vacuum plunger, or a motorized solder extractor using continuous vacuum and/ or pressure.
       
   

True

   

False

       
20. INTEGRATED CIRCUIT (IC)—Elements inseparably associated and formed on or within a single substrate.
       
   

True

   

False
