If you ever work with a circuit that controls a decent amount of current, you will often encounter a FET – a Field-Effect Transistor. Whether you want to control a couple of powerful LEDs, switch a ...

The 2N2222 and BC549 transistors are two old components that are still universally used in the vast majority of electrical circuits today. Their applications include amplifiers, filters, impedance ...

Without transistors the modern world would simply not exist. But how do they work, and how do modern, atomic sized versions compare with the originals? The word "transitor" has become almost invisible ...

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 ...

When you think of Sony, you probably think of a technology company that’s been around forever. However, as [Asianometry] points out, it really formed in the tough years after World War II. The two ...

High voltage nanosecond pulse generation using avalanche transistors represents a transformative avenue in the field of pulsed power technology. Exploiting the intrinsic properties of avalanche ...

MUNICH, Germany — Intel will introduce trigate transistors beginning with the 32-nm technology node scheduled for 2009. With this new three-dimensional transistor structures, Intel hopes to achieve ...

A reconfigurable transistor can run AI processes using 100 times less electricity than the standard transistors found in silicon-based chips. It could help spur development of a new generation of ...

This new breakthrough can enable using up to 85% fewer transistors than current approaches. Having fewer transistors operating for the same work, power consumption and temperatures are reduced, which ...
