A Planet Analog article, “ 2N3904: Why use a 60-year-old transistor? ” by Bill Schweber, inspired some interest in this old ...

Linear Technology's recently introduced LTC4300 chip buffers I 2 C clock and data lines to and from a hot-swappable card. This task is difficult because the IC must work bidirectionally, meaning that ...

This video explains what transistors are and how they function as electronic switches and amplifiers. As a core component of ...

On Oct. 3, 1950, three Bell Labs scientists received a patent for a "three-electrode circuit element" that would usher in the ...

A new magnetic transistor switches current ten times more strongly than silicon chips while operating at lower energy, and also integrates memory.

Abstract: This paper surveys the history of the electric-circuit representation of the transistor over the past fifty years. During the first two decades after the transistor was announced in 1948, ...

Ever wondered how a solar-powered lamp powers an LED with just a single 1.2 V cell? A closer look reveals a clever single-transistor voltage converter circuit. Curious how a solar-powered lamp powers ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. 1. In the circuit for the 1 mA two-terminal current source, the leftmost PNP transistor (Q4) is a "bolt-on" to harvest ...

In today's project, I am going to make a flip-flop circuit by using the most popular NPN transistor BC547 A Flip-Flop LED flashing circuit is a fundamental circuit that delivers a continuous square ...

The development and the revolution of nanotechnology require more and effective methods to accurately estimating the timing analysis for any CMOS transistor level circuit. Many researches attempted to ...
