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 needed wherever current flows, and they are an indispensable component of virtually all electronic switches. In the field of power electronics, transistors are used to switch large ...

OK, so I have an old project laptop with an IDE/PATA/slim-ATAPI optical drive bay, into which I have inserted a SATA drive caddy with a bridge board. The thing is, the caddy doesn't transfer the drive ...

A new study represents a significant advance in topological transistors and beyond-CMOS electronics. First time that the topological state in a topological insulator has been switched on and off using ...

Nottingham-based Search For The Next (SFN) has released data on a power transistor made using its ‘quantum junction’ transistor (QJT) technology – branded ‘Bizen’. It has a TO-247 transistor switching ...

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 ...

Memory chips also use transistors: Static RAM (SRAM) uses a few transistors to store one bit in a flip-flop arrangement, while dynamic RAM (DRAM) uses one transistor plus a tiny capacitor to store a ...
