In this lesson, students build two circuits and explore how transistors function. When Bell Labs introduced the transistor in June of 1948, a spokesman proudly announced "This cylindrical object ...

As with many inventions, two people had the idea for an integrated circuit at almost the same time. Transistors had become commonplace in everything from radios to phones to computers, and now ...

There is another family of transistors which have analogous circuit configurations to their bipolar cousins but work in a completely different way: the Field Effect Transistors, or FETs.

A  new technical paper titled “Accelerating OTA Circuit Design: Transistor Sizing Based on a Transformer Model and ...

If you ever work with a circuit that controls a decent amount of current, you will often encounter a FET – a Field-Effect Transistor. Whether you want to control a couple of powerful LEDs ...

Gordon Moore's prediction made over 40 years ago, that the number of transistors in an integrated circuit would double roughly every 24 months, continues to be the guiding principle of the ...

Over half a century ago, Gordon Moore, co-founder of Intel, postulated that the number of transistors in a circuit would double every 18 months. In the computer world, this assertion has become ...

In 1958, the first integrated circuit flip-flop was built using two transistors at Texas Instruments. The chips of today contain more than 1 billion transistors. The memory that could once support an ...
