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 . . .
Transistors are tiny electronic components that act as switches and amplifiers, and they dwell at the heart of modern technology. In simple terms, a transistor can turn a flow of electricity on or off ...
Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it's a semiconductor, this ...
The transistor, invented at Bell Labs in 1947, replaced bulky vacuum tubes and enabled the miniaturization revolution that created modern electronics.
Researchers previously reported a self-aligned technique for making graphene transistors with unparalleled speed, but scalability was a question. The team now uses a dielectrophoresis assembly ...
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 ...
Transistors are the fundamental building blocks behind today's electronic revolution, powering everything from smartphones to powerful servers by controlling the flow of electrical currents. But ...
The recent EDN article of Bruce Trump () on the input impedance of an op-amp circuit took into account the single-pole roll-off of its loop gain. He showed with a simple derivation how the equivalent ...
Recent technological advances have opened new possibilities for the development of advanced biomedical devices that could be ...
