Category: CMOS 

CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) ICs are defined by their extremely low power consumption, high noise immunity, and wide operating-voltage range, all made possible by using complementary pairs of p-channel and n-channel MOSFETs that draw almost no current except when switching. This design gives CMOS logic excellent energy efficiency, making it ideal for battery-powered and portable devices, while also enabling high-density integration for complex digital circuits. CMOS ICs typically offer slower edge speeds than some high-performance logic families but compensate with minimal heat generation, strong reliability, and broad applicability across microprocessors, memory chips, sensors, and general-purpose logic functions.
