A transistor fabricated from the crystalline phase of an organic semiconductor material could provide a path to improved switching speeds — rivalling those of devices built from inorganic materials ...

A transistor – a word blend of "transfer" and "resistor" – is a fundamental component of today's advanced electronics. Essentially, a transistor, as one of the foundational elements of modern ...

A dramatic exception is the ΔVbe effect, in which ordinary small signal BJTs can function in simple circuits as 0.1% ...

Back to analog, let us start some Schmitt trigger experiments with jellybean bipolar junction transistors… This post explores the classic emitter-coupled Schmitt Trigger circuit. A Schmitt trigger is ...

Building things in a lab is easy, at least when compared to scaling up for mass production. That’s why there are so many articles about fusion being right around the corner, or battery technology that ...

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 . . .
