What is the full form of CMOS?
The CMOS full form is Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor. CMOS is a printed circuit board-based integrated circuit. It is a battery-powered memory chip that holds the initialization data without difficulty. This information is used by the BIOS to switch on the device, or during the boot process.

- The complementary word refers to the user charge, namely PMOS (positive MOS) or NMOS (negative MOS) (negative MOS). CMOS utilizes a single charge at once.
- CMOS consumes less energy since charges can remain in one phase for an extended amount of time and so only consume energy when necessary.
- CMOS-focused transistors do not heat up and produce a high rate.
Applications of CMOS
- Microcontrollers
- Static RAM
- Microprocessor
- Digital logic circuits
- Image sensor
