These are all under the transistor umbrella, but when people say “transistor”, they usually mean BJT, and when people say “FET”, they usually mean “MOSFET”.

Memory chips also use transistors: Static RAM (SRAM) uses a few transistors to store one bit in a flip-flop arrangement, while dynamic RAM (DRAM) uses one transistor plus a tiny capacitor to store ...

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 ...

A reconfigurable transistor can run AI processes using 100 times less electricity than the standard transistors found in silicon-based chips. It could help spur development of a new generation of ...

MUNICH, Germany — Intel will introduce trigate transistors beginning with the 32-nm technology node scheduled for 2009. With this new three-dimensional transistor structures, Intel hopes to achieve ...

High voltage nanosecond pulse generation using avalanche transistors represents a transformative avenue in the field of pulsed power technology. Exploiting the intrinsic properties of avalanche ...

The transistor has been evolved by a team of researchers with the Vienna University of Technology. This was achieved by tapping into the Germanium. The team developed a new, adaptive transistor ...

High voltage nanosecond pulse generation using avalanche transistors represents a transformative avenue in the field of pulsed power technology.

Beyond overall chip performance, the new transistor architecture will address another critical issue: If processors continue to use conventional transistors, then future devices could one day ...

At first the US military bought all the transistors Bell Labs could make, and the company agreed to license other manufacturers. As engineers learned how to use the new invention, plans were made for ...
