Motorola develops a dual-gate transistor in which the two gates can switch on and off independently--a twist the company says could increase performance and reduce power consumption.

Bastion will launch for Switch via the Nintendo eShop on September 13 for $14.99, followed by Transistor on November 1 for $19.99, developer Supergiant Games announced.

This novel ultra-thin transistor is claimed to be superior to those used in today’s electronics. Specifically, the scientists boast of rapid nanosecond switching speeds and remarkable durability.

In theory, the hundreds of photons, controlled by the triggering photon, could fan out and switch off hundreds of other transistors in an optical circuit.

Now a new study from the same MIT lab used that new material to create an ultrathin transistor that shows no signs of degradation even after 100 billion switches.

In circuits, transistors act as switches or amplifiers, controlling current flow based on the voltage at their base. They switch on with a base voltage of around 0.6V to 0.8V.

Many of us are familiar with photosensitive switches made with a single transistor that is controlled by a photoresistor placed between the base and the recharger, depending on what is desired: normal ...

You know them, you love them, you take them for granted – they are single push button on/off switches. As [Dino] explains in the most recent episode of his Hack a Week series, they are typica… ...

The ultrathin topological insulator sodium bismuthide (Na 3 Bi) can switch to being a conventional insulator when an electric field is applied. This “off-on” effect, discovered by researchers in ...

Qucs has most of the components that you’ll need for professional-level circuit simulation as well as many different transistor models.
