We’ve previously remarked upon a generation lucky enough to be well-versed in microcontrollers and computersised electronics through being brought up on the Arduino or the Raspberry Pi but unlucky ...

Immediately, I learned that the common base configuration gain was 6db lower than the common emitter. This blew my mind. Then I started checking input resistance and was shocked at how low it measured ...

Researchers from the University of California – Riverside and Rice University have made the first single-transistor amplifier from graphene. The device is better than conventional amplifiers thanks to ...

Physical concepts -- Characteristics, parameters, equivalent circuits -- Basic amplifier configurations -- Direct-current bias circuits -- Low-frequency amplifiers -- Power amplifiers -- High ...

The transistor and the PWM-switch, the core circuit of power converters, have interesting analogs. Both have three terminals, hence three configurations. They are active devices, and each has a key ...

The unique material properties of gallium nitride (GaN), wide bandgap, high thermal conductivity, high breakdown voltage, high electron mobility and the device properties of GaN High electron mobility ...

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 ...
