Ultra Low Power Bioelectronics
RF Cafe Quiz #24

RF Engineering Quizzes - RF CafeAll RF Cafe Quizzes make great fodder for employment interviews for technicians or engineers - particularly those who are fresh out of school or are relatively new to the work world. Come to think of it, they would make equally excellent study material for the same persons who are going to be interviewed for a job. Bonne chance, Viel Glück, がんばろう, buena suerte, удачи, in bocca al lupo, 행운을 빕니다, ádh mór, בהצלחה, lykke til, 祝你好運. Well, you know what I mean: Good luck!

Click here for the complete list of RF Cafe Quizzes.

Note: Some material based on books have quoted passages.

RF Cafe Featured Book - Ultra Low Power Bioelectronics: Fundamentals, Biomedical Applications, and Bio-inspired SystemsThis quiz is based on the information presented in Ultra Low Power Bioelectronics: Fundamentals, Biomedical Applications, and Bio-Inspired Systems, by Rahul Sarpeshkar, published by Cambridge University Press.

 Note: Some of these books are available as prizes in the monthly RF Cafe Giveaway.
