CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor)

  CMOS stands for Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor, which is a type of technology used in computer chips and other electronics. The term is typically used to refer to the technology used in the fabrication of the microchips that make up the central processing unit (CPU) and other components of a computer.In a CMOS chip, the transistors are made from a combination of metal and oxide materials, which allows them to switch between high and low states with low power consumption. This makes CMOS chips ideal for use in low-power devices, such as laptops and mobile phones, as well as in computers and other electronics that require large amounts of processing power. In addition to its power-saving capabilities, CMOS technology also offers several other benefits, such as high speed, low noise, and the ability to integrate a large number of transistors on a single chip.

  It's also worth noting that CMOS technology is not just used in computer chips, but in a variety of other electronics as well, such as image sensors in digital cameras, memories in mobile phones, and in various other types of integrated circuits.
