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 ...

Solid-state device technologies, which are available to the amplifier designer, fall, broadly, into three categories: bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) and junction diodes; junction field effect ...

Characteristics of IGZO-TFT-based circuits that are making them more popular alternatives in design. The challenges faced when dealing with AMOLED displays. Examples of applications employing IGZO-TFT ...

Individual transistors made from carbon nanotubes are faster and more energy efficient than those made from other materials. Going from a single transistor to an integrated circuit full of transistors ...

Announced yesterday, researchers from Surrey and Cambridge universities and the National Research Institute in Rome have used thin-film source-gated transistor (SGT) to create compact analogue circuit ...

Transistors are the fundamental building blocks behind today's electronic revolution, powering everything from smartphones to powerful servers by controlling the flow of electrical currents. But ...

An important strategy for realizing flexible electronics is to use solution-processable materials that can be directly printed and integrated into high-performance electronic components on plastic.
