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 ...

With a 4k1 collector resistor and 16mA drive into the led, the chosen (read ‘cheapest on ebay’) 6N135 is supposed to beat 1.5μs for both turn on and turn off, with typical figures of 90ns and 800ns.

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 ...

A team of scientists at the University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory have created an ultrathin transistor unlike any current design. Instead of larger 3-D layers of semiconductors, as in ...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs), cylindrical nanostructures made of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice, have proved to be promising for the fabrication of various electronic devices. In fact, these ...

N vidia's ever-optimistic CEO, Jensen Huang, has revealed more details of the company's next-gen AI platform at the same GTC ...

The field of transistor technology is approaching a critical juncture as silicon transistors near their physical scaling limits. This has encouraged ...

Abstract: For the first time, we present a one-transistor dynamic random access memory (DRAM) cell using the ferroelectric polarization-assisted charge trapping phenomenon. The gate structure is ...
