Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R:

Assertion (A): The biggest advantage of using a PROM as a programmable logic device is that its design can be changed and modified rapidly.

Reason (R): The PROM can generate any possible logic function of input variables because it generates every possible AND product term.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Answer 1

PROM:

It stands for programmable read-only memory.
It comes under the category of the programmable logic device also known as field programmable ROM.
In this, user has the ability to modify the binary information electrically once only.
It has a fixed AND array(designed as a decoder) and a programmable OR array.
OR array fuse technology is done by wire,transistor,diode.

So from the given information assertion and reason, both are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
