(Nanowerk News) The invention of the transistor in 1947 by Shockley, Bardeen and Brattain at Bell Laboratories ushered in the age of microelectronics and revolutionized our lives. First, so-called ...

We like to pretend that our circuit elements are perfect because, honestly, it makes life easier and it often doesn’t matter much in practice. For a normal design, the fact that a foot of wire has a ...

New technical paper titled “Organic bipolar transistors” from researchers at Technische Universität Dresden, NanoP, Technische Hochschule Mittelhessen, University of Applied Science, and ALBA ...

Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBTs) have become pivotal components in modern power electronic systems, blending the high input impedance and fast switching capabilities of MOSFETs with the high ...

The company’s first bipolar transistors in its miniature PowerDI5 surface-mount package are designed on a fifth-generation matrix emitter process, yielding a range of 12 NPN and PNP transistors with a ...

In the early days, PNP bipolar transistors were common, but the bulk of circuits you see today use NPN transistors. As [Aaron Danner] points out, many people think PNP transistors are “backward” but ...

This course presents in-depth discussion and analysis of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) and bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) including the equilibrium characteristics, ...
