11 Questions
- Q1. About your work experience
- Q2. Sequence detector
- Q3. I2c protocol thoroughly
- Q4. Spi protocol
- Q5. Difference between spi & i2c,difference between latch & ff
- Ans.
SPI and I2C are communication protocols used for connecting devices, while latch and FF are different types of sequential logic elements.
SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) and I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) are both serial communication protocols used for connecting devices in embedded systems.
SPI uses separate lines for data input and output, while I2C uses a shared bus for both input and output.
SPI supports higher dat...
- Q6. 3 box contains ballls,labels are different for them all
- Q7. 2 identical pills
- Q8. Find the average speed for a particular ditance is the average speed while going is x.find out the speed of whole trip...(something like that)
- Ans.
To find the average speed for the whole trip, we need to know the distance and the time taken for the trip.
Average speed = Total distance / Total time
If the distance and time for the trip are known, the average speed can be calculated.
If only the average speed while going is known, we cannot determine the speed of the whole trip without additional information.
- Q9. A circular wheel and a sensor.find out the direction of rotation(related to digital)
- Ans.
Use a sensor to detect the direction of rotation of a circular wheel by monitoring signal changes as it rotates.
Use an incremental encoder that generates pulses as the wheel rotates.
Determine direction by comparing the phase of two output signals (A and B).
If signal A leads signal B, the wheel rotates clockwise; if B leads A, it rotates counterclockwise.
Example: In a rotary encoder, the quadrature output can indicate d...
- Q10. Cricket match.maximum run achieved by batsman(he dropped the idea of asking as i have 0 knowledge of game)
- Q11. Probability of getting heads maximum two times
- Ans.
The probability of getting heads maximum two times in a series of coin flips.
To calculate the probability, divide the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes.
In this case, the favorable outcomes are 0, 1, or 2 heads, and the total possible outcomes are 2^n, where n is the number of coin flips.
For example, if we flip a coin 3 times, the favorable outcomes are HHT, HTH, THH, HHH, TTH, THT, a...

- Q1. What is the difference between static methods and instance methods in Java?
- Ans.
Static methods belong to the class itself, while instance methods belong to individual objects of the class.
Static methods are called using the class name, while instance methods are called using object references.
Static methods cannot access instance variables directly, while instance methods can access both static and instance variables.
Static methods are shared among all instances of the class, while instance method...
- Q2. What is the difference between an abstract class and an interface in Java?
- Ans.
Abstract class can have both abstract and non-abstract methods, while interface can only have abstract methods.
Abstract class can have constructors, member variables, and methods with implementation.
Interface can only have abstract methods and constants.
A class can implement multiple interfaces but can only extend one abstract class.
Example: Abstract class - Animal with abstract method 'eat', Interface - Flyable with m...
- Q3. What is the difference between ClassNotFoundException and NoClassDefFoundError in Java?
- Ans.
ClassNotFoundException occurs when a class is not found during runtime, while NoClassDefFoundError occurs when a class was found during compilation but not during runtime.
ClassNotFoundException is a checked exception, while NoClassDefFoundError is an Error.
ClassNotFoundException occurs when a class is not found at runtime, usually due to a missing classpath or incorrect class name.
NoClassDefFoundError occurs when a cla...
- Q4. What is the difference between an Error and an Exception in Java?
- Ans.
Error is a serious issue that cannot be handled at runtime, while Exception is a recoverable issue that can be caught and handled.
Error is a subclass of Throwable and is usually caused by the environment or system, such as running out of memory or stack overflow.
Exception is also a subclass of Throwable but is caused by the application code, such as invalid input or file not found.
Errors are unchecked and are not meant...
- Q5. What is SerialVersionUID in Java?
- Ans.
SerialVersionUID is a unique identifier used by Java to ensure the compatibility of serialized objects.
SerialVersionUID is a static final long variable in a class that implements Serializable interface.
It is used to ensure that the serialized object can be deserialized correctly even if the class definition has changed.
If the SerialVersionUID of the serialized object does not match the one in the class, an InvalidClass...
- Q6. What are the requirements for creating an immutable class in Java?
- Ans.
Requirements for creating an immutable class in Java
Make the class final so it cannot be extended
Make all fields private and final
Do not provide setter methods, only getter methods
Ensure that mutable objects are not returned in getter methods
Override equals() and hashCode() methods for proper comparison
Consider making defensive copies of mutable fields in constructor or getter methods

Reactive forms in Angular are a way to build forms in a reactive and scalable way.
Reactive forms use an underlying data model to manage form data.
They allow for dynamic form creation and validation.
They can be used with complex form structures and nested forms.
They provide a more scalable and maintainable approach to form development.
Example: Creating a reactive form with FormBuilder in Angular.
