When 4 binary serial counters are connected in cascade for frequency division, what division factor is required?.               
Option A.        8.        
Option B.        16.      
Option C.        4.        
Correct Answer is.      16.      
Explanation.    Each serial counter changes its state once every 2 clock pulses. So 4 serial counters divides by   2x2x2x2 = 16.

An example of a small size integrated circuit would be.                   
Option A.        DIP switch.    
Option B.        Control Processor Unit.         
Option C.        ALU.  
Correct Answer is.      Control Processor Unit.         
Explanation.    A DIP switch is not an IC. ALU is an integrated part of the CPU. The 'Control Processor Unit' is another term used for the 'Central Processor Unit (CPU)' or sometimes a switching unit used in telegraphy (such as the touch-pad of a telephone) - the latter would be an SSI (defined as containing up to 100 transistors or gates).
