The transistor and the PWM-switch, the core circuit of power converters, have interesting analogs. Both have three terminals, hence three configurations. They are active devices, and each has a key ...

Innoscience Technology has launched a 100V bi-directional GaN-on-silicon bi-directional transistor, intended to replace a pair of back-to-back mosfets for turning a power rail on and off. It “can be ...

Transistors, the tiny switches that flip on and off inside computer chips, have long been the domain of electricity. But scientists are beginning to develop chip components that run on light. Last ...

Organic semiconductor technology relies on carbon-based materials, and it is known as one of the promising key technologies for realizing large-area and low-cost electronics. Owing to recent intensive ...

Researchers have reported a black phosphorus transistor that can be used as an alternative ultra-low power switch. A research team led by Professor Sungjae Cho in the KAIST Department of Physics ...

Among semiconductors, the muting transistor and its audio application is perhaps the most obscure and poorly understood of all. There is extremely little information on this subject available on the ...
