Over the recent weeks here at Hackaday, we’ve been taking a look at the humble transistor. In a series whose impetus came from a friend musing upon his students arriving with highly developed ...

Editor's Note: The following tutorial is one of a series of six on transistor theory by Howard Skolnik, retired Burr-Brown designer. Skolnik and Bob Dobkin, CTO of Linear Technology, will be our ...

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 ...

Silicon chip manufacturers like Intel and TSMC are constantly outdoing themselves to make ever smaller features, but they are getting closer to the physical limits of silicon. “We already have very, ...

For decades, chipmakers have squeezed more computing power out of silicon by shrinking transistors, but that strategy is ...

A new material can withstand 'billions' of electrical cycles without wearing out — and scientists say it could transform electronics within 10 to 20 years. When you purchase through links on our site, ...

Applied Materials has revealed chip wiring innovations that will help address challenges in the way of energy-efficient computing. The use of new materials in chip wiring will enable two-nanometer ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Organic semiconductors have long held promise for enabling deformable electronic devices that can be manufactured at low cost and high volumes using printing techniques. However, ...

Editor's Note: The following tutorial is one of a series of six on transistor theory by Howard Skolnik, retired Burr-Brown designer. In Part 1 of this series we explored the terminal impedances of a ...
