Stacks of transistors built from nanomembranes that can be rolled onto a substrate have been used to fabricate 3D circuits. A transistor is a device that controls the flow of current in a circuit. In ...

Can a simple medium-wave radio receive shortwave broadcasts? In 2005, Burkhard Kainka answered that question with a creative two-transistor converter.

If you open up the perennial favourite electronics textbook The Art Of Electronics and turn to the section on transistors, you will see a little cartoon. A transistor is shown as a room in which ...

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 . . .

Many electronic projects require the use of a small audio amplifier. Be it a radio transceiver, a digital voice recorder, or an intercom, they all call for an audio amp that is small, cheap, and has ...

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 ...
