In an 8-bit binary numbering system,

how can you tell if a number is

positive or negative? Explain!

Look at the MSB – if it is a “0”

The number is positive. If it is

a “1” the number is negative.

What is the correct truth table output for


an XOR gate?

How can a multiplexer/demultiplexer be

used to conserve energy. Provide an


explanation and an example.

MUX or DEMUX circuits can

be used to power electronic

clocks & scoreboards.


They can conserve energy if they are

cycled on one at a time, rather than all

at once. If cycled fast enough, they all

appear to be on at the same time!
