Process devices operate when an input level, such as voltage, reaches the required value for the device to operate. The transistor is on, when the input voltage is greater than or equal to \(0.7 V\).

Transistors, the tiny switches that flip on and off inside computer chips, have long been the domain of electricity. But scientists are beginning to develop chip components that run on light. Last ...

The use of transistors for switching things ON and OFF is a key feature of proper hacking. The ability for bipolar transistors to turn things ON and OFF is one of the less known uses while transistors ...

In the vast world of digital electronics and logic circuits, The XOR gate stands as a fundamental building block that plays a crucial role in information processing. XOR, short for Exclusive OR. Is a ...

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 transistor and ...

Every rose has its thorn – but roses grown in a Swedish lab have transistors and electrodes too. Researchers at Linköping University have created bionic roses by incorporating plant-compatible ...

There are a wide range of applications for light sensitive switches: lighting, entrance door, automatic staircase, automatic opening of doors to the action of a ray of light, alarm systems, etc… Many ...

555 timer IC is an electronic component that we use in many electronic projects. It is called a timer because it can be used to control the time for which an electronic device stays on or off. The 555 ...
