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 ...

Transistors that can change properties are important elements in the development of tomorrow's semiconductors. With standard transistors approaching the limit for how small they can be, having more ...

A recent Design Idea presents a circuit to measure an airflow rate up to 2000 fpm using two transistors in a Darlington configuration. One transistor works as a self-heated thermal sensor and the ...

Researchers at the University of Cambridge have developed a transistor which operates on energy ‘scavenged’ from its environment and say this could enable devices which function for months or years ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) For new generation electronic appliances advanced nanoscale transistors are in demand which needs precise biasing of each device. These stringent biasing conditions can be relaxed ...

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -- The transistor laser invented by scientists at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign has now been found to possess fundamental non-linear characteristics that are new to a ...

Our microelectronics relies on doped semiconductors. But there is an alternative: Instead of the semiconductor parts ...

New technical paper titled “New ternary inverter with memory function using silicon feedback field-effect transistors” was published from researchers at Korea University. In this study, we present a ...
