Answer» The correct answer is (b) LED’s can be driven by transistor logics To explain I would say: Output devices like LED’s only REQUIRE a few milliamps at logic level DC voltages and can THEREFORE be driven directly by the output of a logic gate. HOWEVER, high power devices such as motors or LAMPS require more power than that supplied by an ordinary logic gate so transistor SWITCHES are used.
