[Dr. Cockroach]’s goal was to build a four-bit computer out of recycled and repurposed junk. The resulting computer, called IO, consists of a single 555, around 230 PNP and NPN transistors, 230 diodes ...

As integration density continues to increase, it becomes even more difficult to make electronic components for complex applications in nanoelectronics — such as navigation systems or computer ...

PARIS — A European consortium from industry and academia has been formed to develop advanced silicon-based bipolar transistors with a maximum operating frequency of 0.5 Terahertz targeting millimeter ...

A transistor is a key component in electronics, often used as a switch or to amplify a signal from a sensor. NPN (negative-positive-negative) transistors are the most used transistor. An illustration ...
