OK, so I get a press release (pdf) from those wonderful folks at CamSemi, AKA Cambridge Semiconductor. It talks about their C2163 off-line switcher chip (pdf). The press release says: “…the BOM cost ...
Just as the common emitter amplifier and common base amplifier each tied those respective transistor terminals to a fixed potential and used the other two terminals as amplifier input and output, so ...
Over the recent weeks here at Hackaday, we’ve been taking a look at the humble transistor. In a series whose impetus came from a friend musing upon his students arriving with highly developed ...
Field-effect transistors based on carbon nanotubes have been shown to be faster and less energy consuming than their silicon counterparts. However, ensuring these advantages are maintained for ...
