When we were in school, every description of how transistors work was pretty dry and had a lot of math involved. We suppose you might have had a great instructor who was able to explain things ...

[James] documented his work in great detail ... 200 x 200 mm) Everyone of the ~42,300 transistors were hand-soldered to one of the massive PCBs, which look more like interactive circuit diagrams ...

Understanding these operations is key to understanding how transistors work and contribute to the complex world of electronics. The source acts as the emitter filament of an electron tube; the drain ...

NUS researchers have shown that a single transistor can replicate both neural and synaptic behaviors, marking a significant ...

The scientists Aylesworth talked to suggested there were probably additional impurities in the tin to make that first transistor work. So instead of the tin-doped germanium, Aylesworth used a ...

A microchip with nearly 6,000 transistors, each only three atoms thick, is the most complex microprocessor made from a two-dimensional material to date, scientists in China say. The new device was ...

One way to understand how transistors work is by comparing them with a garden hose with a kink in it. Positively charging the ...

Examples like Intel's Loihi chips tend to get competitive performance out of far lower clock speeds and energy use, but they ...

It can only add single bits at a time and is limited to kilohertz clock speeds, but it is capable of executing the full ...

That transistor, a junction transistor ... he kept Bardeen and Brattain as far removed from the work as possible. Bardeen would soon describe the situation as "intolerable." ...

Infineon Technologies AG has introduced what it claims is the world’s first gallium nitride (GaN) power transistor with an integrated Schottky diode.

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 ...
