An SCR topology transmogrifies into BJT two-wire precision current source with a self-resetting fault-current limiter.

We all know that it’s easy to get caught out by fake electronic components these days, with everything from microcontrollers to specialized ASICs being fair game. More recently, retro components that ...

Also called a "bipolar junction transistor" (BJT), it is one of two major transistor categories; the other is "field-effect transistor" (FET). Although the first transistor was bipolar and the first ...

Solid-state device technologies, which are available to the amplifier designer, fall, broadly, into three categories: bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) and junction diodes; junction field effect ...

British researchers have unveiled the world's smallest transistor, which measures one atom thick and ten atoms across. The newly announced transistor is more than three times smaller than the 32 ...

The world’s fastest transistor has been developed by a pair of US researchers, possibly paving the way for a new generation of super-charged electronic chips. Milton Feng and Walid Hafez at the ...

A new speed record has been set for a type of inexpensive transistor commonly used in cellphones and other gadgets. The component could be used to make more efficient electronic devices, according to ...
