Power transistors with integrated safety and diagnostic functions have been in use since the 1980s as a replacement for mechanical relays, and their use has been growing ever since. They can be ...

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 . . .

Forward-looking: The billions of transistors hidden within a single CPU are manufactured to execute just one specific function. A team of Viennese scientists, however, aims to introduce ...

A transistor – a word blend of "transfer" and "resistor" – is a fundamental component of today's advanced electronics. Essentially, a transistor, as one of the foundational elements of modern ...

Purdue University engineers have developed transistors that can process and store information on one device. The research team accomplished this through combining a transistor with higher-performing ...

Transistors are semiconductors that work as the building blocks of modern computer hardware. Already very small, smaller transistors are an important part of improving computer technology. That’s what ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) For over fifty years, the relentless miniaturization of silicon transistors has upheld Moore’s Law, delivering exponential leaps in computing power. However, this development ...
