Totem- pole outputs_________.
A) cannot be connected together because high currents can damage one or both of the transistors if the outputs are in opposite states (one HIGH and one LOW)
B) can be connected together to handle higher load currents and output voltages
C) can be connected in parallel when higher output currents are required
D) can be connected in series when higher output voltages are required

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Totem-pole outputs cannot be connected together because if the outputs are in opposite states, it can result in high currents that may damage one or both of the transistors. This is due to the direct electrical connection between the high and low parts of the circuit when in opposite states, leading to a short circuit condition.
