An odd-parity generator produces an odd-parity bit to go along with the data. The parity of the transmitted data is _____ An XOR gate can test each received word for parity rejecting words with _____ parity. A. odd, even B. high, low C. low, high D. even, odd E. None of the above

odd, even
high, low
low, high
even, odd E. None of the above

The correct answer is: A. odd, even

An odd-parity generator produces an odd-parity bit to go along with the data. This means that the total number of 1 bits in the data and the parity bit is odd. An XOR gate can test each received word for parity by XORing the word with the parity bit. If the result is 0, then the word has even parity and is correct. If the result is 1, then the word has odd parity and is incorrect.

Here is a more detailed explanation of each option:

  • Option A: odd, even. This is the correct answer. An odd-parity generator produces an odd-parity bit to go along with the data. This means that the total number of 1 bits in the data and the parity bit is odd. An XOR gate can test each received word for parity by XORing the word with the parity bit. If the result is 0, then the word has even parity and is correct. If the result is 1, then the word has odd parity and is incorrect.
  • Option B: high, low. This is incorrect. The parity bit is a binary digit that is used to detect errors in data transmission. It is not a voltage level.
  • Option C: low, high. This is incorrect. The parity bit is a binary digit that is used to detect errors in data transmission. It is not a voltage level.
  • Option D: even, odd. This is incorrect. The parity bit is a binary digit that is used to detect errors in data transmission. It is not a voltage level.
  • Option E: None of the above. This is incorrect. Option A is the correct answer.
