Mock Interview Questions & Answers - ECE
Part 1: HR Questions
Tell me about yourself.
I am currently pursuing my [Link] in Electronics and Communication Engineering. I have a strong interest in
Communication Systems, VLSI, and Embedded Systems. Apart from academics, I have worked on
mini-projects like designing an RF transmitter and a smart irrigation system. I enjoy problem-solving and
learning new technologies.
Why did you choose Electronics and Communication Engineering?
Because it blends hardware and software, and its real-world impact fascinated me.
What are your strengths and weaknesses?
Strength: Problem-solving, quick learning, teamwork.
Weakness: Spending extra time perfecting details, improving time management.
Where do you see yourself in five years?
I aim to become a specialist in core electronics, leading projects related to embedded systems or
communication networks.
Are you willing to relocate?
Yes, I am open to relocation for professional growth.
Part 2: Advanced Technical Questions
What is the difference between CDMA and GSM?
GSM uses TDMA, where users share time slots. CDMA allows users to share frequency using unique codes.
Explain Nyquist Theorem.
A signal can be reconstructed if sampled at least twice its highest frequency component.
Role of PLL (Phase Locked Loop)?
Synchronizes an output oscillator signal with a reference input signal in frequency and phase.
Mock Interview Questions & Answers - ECE
What are S-parameters?
Scattering parameters describe how RF signals behave in networks (reflection and transmission properties).
Channel Capacity (Shannon's theorem)?
C = B log2(1 + S/N), maximum data rate over a noisy channel without error.
Difference between VLSI and Embedded Systems?
VLSI focuses on designing ICs. Embedded systems combine hardware and software for specific tasks.
Miller's Theorem?
Simplifies analysis of feedback circuits by replacing feedback impedance with grounded impedances.
Architecture of 8051 Microcontroller?
4 I/O ports, 2 timers, 1 serial port, on-chip RAM and ROM, 8-bit ALU.
What is Line of Sight (LoS) communication?
Direct unobstructed communication between transmitter and receiver.
How is Error Detection done?
Parity bits, checksum, CRC, Hamming codes.
