CMOS, an Uncommon card
Complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor is a type of metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor fabrication process that uses complementary and symmetrical pairs of p-type and n-type MOSFETs for logic functions.

CMOS quiz: 3 questions
Three questions on the CMOS card, the way WikiCards duels ask them. Pick an answer, the facts are just below.
Find the missing word
CMOS has since remained the ______ fabrication process for MOSFET semiconductor devices.
Answer
standard. CMOS has since remained the standard fabrication process for MOSFET semiconductor devices. From the CMOS article on Wikipedia.
In which decade?
CMOS overtook NMOS logic as the dominant MOSFET fabrication process for very large-scale integration chips in the ____s, replacing earlier transistor–transistor logic technology at the same time.
Answer
1980s. CMOS overtook NMOS logic as the dominant MOSFET fabrication process for very large-scale integration chips in the 1980s, replacing earlier transistor–transistor logic technology at the same time. From the CMOS article on Wikipedia.
Which of these cards hits hardest (highest ATK)?
Answer
Gulf War syndrome. Gulf War syndrome 84 · Black-body radiation 81 · CMOS 78 · Chromesthesia 72 ATK in WikiCards.
In a duel, each round asks a question like these about the opposing card, with 15 seconds to answer.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- CMOS technology is used for constructing integrated circuit chips, including microprocessors, microcontrollers, memory chips, and other digital logic circuits.
- CMOS overtook NMOS logic as the dominant MOSFET fabrication process for very large-scale integration chips in the 1980s, replacing earlier transistor–transistor logic technology at the same time.
- CMOS has since remained the standard fabrication process for MOSFET semiconductor devices.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The CMOS article was read about 160,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 78 and blocks with 87: each hit it takes is cut by 35 %.
How to get CMOS
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
