For the Component Abuse Challenge our hacker [Tim Williams] observes that N-P-N reads the same way forwards and backwards, so ...

For our 2025 Component Abuse Challenge there have been a set of entries which merely use a component for a purpose it wasn’t quite intended, and another which push misuse of a part into ...

The new fabrication technique for all-2D transistors on flexible substrates offers a sustainable alternative, boosting ...

This video explains how transistors work as switches and amplifiers in electronic circuits. Transistors control the flow of ...

Could a single memristor replace both the driving transistor and storage capacitor in micro-LEDs? Prof. Tae-Geun Kim and team ...

The ability to make a very miniature on/off switch changed the world. These tiny switches, known as transistors, make up the basis of all modern computing—they drive your cell phones, your bank ...

Here is a close look at the common- versus differential-mode voltage and instrumentation amplifier (IA) topologies.

A type of 3D FinFET transistor from Intel introduced in 2011 with its Ivy Bridge microarchitecture. The "tri" in Tri-Gate means the gate wraps around three sides of a fin-shaped channel from source to ...

So What Was the Transistor Good For? Transistors may have been useful to the phone company and to a handful of scientists building computers, but that wasn't enough to build an industry. Companies ...

N vidia's ever-optimistic CEO, Jensen Huang, has revealed more details of the company's next-gen AI platform at the same GTC event where the company's quantum computing plans were outlined. He calls ...
