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 ...

What many engineers once saw as a flaw in organic electronics could actually make these devices more stable and reliable, ...

Transistors are tiny electronic components that act as switches and amplifiers, and they dwell at the heart of modern technology. In simple terms, a transistor can turn a flow of electricity on or off ...

Microprocessors in smartphones, computers, and data centers process information by manipulating electrons through solid semiconductors, but our brains have a different system. They rely on the ...

Last time on Circuit VR, we looked at creating a very simple common emitter amplifier, but we didn’t talk about how to select the capacitor values, or much about why we wanted them. We are going to ...

Transistors are the tiny building blocks behind nearly every modern electronic device. This video explains how they work as ...

The idea of using a super-regenerative radio to receive commercial FM stations can be found at various locations on the Internet. Because the circuit is so small, it might be impressive to lab ...
