Such are the breadth of functions delivered by integrated circuits, it’s now rare to see a simple small-signal transistor project on these pages. But if you delve back into the roots of ...

Abstract: This work analyses the half-adder circuit in different transistor logic families such as CMOS, Psuedo nMOS, Transmission Gate, Pass Transistor, Dynamic CMOS and Domino CMOS logics for area ...

Abstract: Energy-efficient digital designs are crucial in modern devices such as IoT and handheld devices. Pass-Transistor Logic (PTL) is a good candidate for designing low-power circuits, but signal ...

As with many inventions, two people had the idea for an integrated circuit at almost the same time. Transistors had become commonplace in everything from radios to phones to computers, and now ...

Vactrols, or both an LED and a light depending resistor (LDR) in a light-tight housing, are found in analog music electronics circuits like audio compressors, voltage-controlled amplifiers (VCAs), ...

Bob Noyce's nickname was the "Mayor of Silicon Valley." He was one of the very first scientists to work in the area -- long before the stretch of California had earned the Silicon name -- and he ran ...

Ken Fisher is retiring after 55 years as a broadcast technician, ending a career that spanned the evolution of radio from vinyl records and mechanical relays to digital automation. Fisher spent 27 ...
