What is ground in an IC?
For power supplies sometimes one of the supply rails will be referred to as ground (abbreviated “GND”) – positive and negative voltages are relative to the ground. In digital electronics, negative voltages are seldom present, and the ground nearly always is the most negative voltage level.
What is the difference between chassis ground and earth ground?
Chassis ground is meant to protect people from shocks . It is a protective ground which is connected to the earth ground. Earth ground is a metal rod really dug deep in ground outside the building to sink current and provide ground zero.
What are the two types of ICS?
There are two types of IC manufacturing technologies one is monolithic technology and other is hybrid technology.
Is negative and ground the same?
There is no difference between ground and a negative terminal, if you have defined them to be the same connection. Ground can be the negative terminal of a battery, the positive terminal, or it might be the middle connection between two series batteries.
Are Integrated Circuits analog?
An analog integrated circuit (IC) is a basic component in most electronic devices, the most basic circuit that is a part of a larger electronic circuit. An analog integrated circuit involves an output signal that follows a continuous input signal.
Why do ICs have multiple ground pins on the case?
The reason for multiple external grounds can be due to internal wiring efficiency. Sometimes its not practical to route a ground internally on the IC wafer. But another reason is heat dissipation. Multiple ground pins, including the GND connections under the case, are used to ensure more thermal conductivity to the PCB the IC is connected to.

What is the purpose of ICS?
ICS is a standardized management tool designed to allow its users to adopt an integratedorganizational structure flexible enough to meet the demands of small or large emergency ornonemergency situations. Identification of areas of management weakness resulted in the development of ICS.
What are the basic ICs operating guidelines?
basic ICS operating guideline is that the person at the top of the organization is responsibleuntil the authority is delegated to another person. Thus, on smaller incidents when theseadditional persons are not required, the Incident Commander will personally accomplish ormanage all aspects of the incident organization. ICS Span of Control
