The characteristics of the combinational circuits are:
A. Output at any time is function of inputs at that time
B. Contains memory elements
C. Do not have feedback paths
D. Clock is used to trigger the circuits to obtain outputs
Pick an option to check yourself, or open the answer below.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C. A and C only
Explanation
Combinational outputs depend only on current inputs and there are no feedback paths. Memory and clocks belong to sequential circuits.
