[Ben Krasnow] put together a tutorial in which he does an excellent job of explaining the ins and outs of designing transistor control circuits. We’ve embedded his twenty-minute video after the ...

In this lesson, students build two circuits and explore how transistors function. When Bell Labs introduced the transistor in June of 1948, a spokesman proudly announced "This cylindrical object ...

You probably also have a working knowledge that a germanium diode or a Schottky diode will have a lower forward voltage, and you’ll know in turn that a bipolar transistor will begin to turn on ...

The idea of an optical transistor — and the associated optical logic circuits that may follow — conjures images of light controlling light in some sparkling, transparent computer. This dream ...

As with many inventions, two people had the idea for an integrated circuit at almost the same time. Transistors had become commonplace in everything from radios to phones to computers, and now ...

Finally, a similar nanotube paste designed to be highly adhesive was used to 'glue' each pixel into the circuit by interconnecting the transistors with the elastic nanotube conductor. Extending ...

Transistors find extensive applications in electronic circuits due to their exceptional ability to amplify or switch signals with minimal power consumption. Furthermore, they can be easily integrated ...

I investigate the application of homotopy methods to solving nonlinear equations describing circuits consisting of bipolar junction and MOS transistors that traditionally pose simulation difficulties.

Transistors are wonderful they're so powerful and versatile. With a handful of transistors, you can build almost any kind of high-performance circuit: a fast op-amp, a video buffer, or a unique logic ...

Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) technology is a vital part of modern electronics, used in designing and manufacturing integrated circuits (ICs) that power many digital devices. CMOS ...

A research team from the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia pushed the frontiers of edible electronics: a toothpaste-based ...
