The use of transistors for switching things ON and OFF is a key feature of proper hacking. The ability for bipolar transistors to turn things ON and OFF is one of the less known uses while transistors ...

Intelligent soft switching with AI support promises to reduce switching losses in power transistors by up to 95 per cent.

Data doesn’t have to travel as far or waste as much energy when the memory and logic components are closer together.

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 ...

How many remote controls do you have in your home? Don’t you wish all these things were better integrated somehow, or that you could add remote control functionality to a random device? It’s a common ...

A fully functional, fast switching and printable transistor in cheap plastic has just been invented. A fully functional, fast switching and printable transistor in cheap plastic is invented by ...

Have you ever heard of topological insulators? These are exotic materials where electricity flows only on the surface with very little loss. Now, according to IEEE Spectrum, scientists at Harvard have ...

Engineers are starting to build hardware that does not just run artificial intelligence, it behaves like a primitive form of ...
