The switch that has the fastest speed of operation is ____________ switch?
Correct answer: A. Electronic
- A. Electronic
- B. Mechanical
- C. Electromechanical
- D. None of the above
Explanation
An electronic switch operates without moving contacts, allowing it to switch much faster than mechanical or electromechanical types. Transistors and other semiconductor devices are therefore used for high-speed switching.
