Transistors are also integral to high-frequency applications like the oscillator circuits in radio signal generation. Transistors possess some unique characteristics that make them ideal for use in ...

Gordon Moore's prediction made over 40 years ago, that the number of transistors in an integrated circuit would double ... show excellent short-channel characteristics with high drive-current ...

As with many inventions, two people had the idea for an integrated circuit at almost the same time. Transistors had become commonplace in everything from radios to phones to computers, and now ...

There is another family of transistors which have analogous circuit configurations to their bipolar cousins but work in a completely different way: the Field Effect Transistors, or FETs.

In this module on MOSFETs (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors), we cover the following topics: History of the development of MOSFETs, Device structure, Device types, Circuit symbols, ...

When the germanium heated up -- a natural outcome of being part of an electrical circuit -- the transistor would have too many free electrons. Since a transistor only works because it has a ...

Transistors, the building blocks of integrated circuits, face growing challenges ... has further been demonstrated based on these characteristics. "This work opens a new realm in transistor ...

These circuit characteristics lengthen simulation runtimes considerably ... These simulators achieve shorter runtimes than SPICE through automatic simplification of transistor models and, possibly, by ...
