Q1:

An electronic circuit with about 20 transistors fabricated on a silicon chip is known as

A SSI

B MSI

C DPS

D RJE

E None of the above

ANS:A - SSI

SSI : small-scale integration, the amount of Transistors is from 1 to 10.

MSI : medium-scale integration, the amount of Transistors is from 10 to 500. ----> (the answer is this one).

LSI : large-scale integration, the amount of Transistors is from 500 to 20,000.

VLSI : very large-scale integration, the amount of Transistors is from 20,000 to 1,000,000.

ULSI : ultra-large-scale integration, the amount of Transistors is from 1,000, 000 and more.
