For more than a decade, engineers have been eyeing the finish line in the race to shrink the size of components in integrated circuits. They knew that the laws of physics had set a 5-nanometer ...
A technical paper titled “Gate Drive Circuit Suitable for a GaN Gate Injection Transistor” was published by researchers at Nagoya University. “A GaN gate injection transistor (GIT) has great potential ...
While attending APEC 2019, it seemed that gallium-nitride (GaN) transistors were just coming into their own in high-volume applications, while silicon-carbide (SiC) transistors have found wide ...
Conventional silicon-based electronics are rapidly approaching a fundamental barrier. Below about five nanometers, quantum effects make their behavior unpredictable. That’s led to research into ...
This application note describes the basic characteristics and operating performance of IGBTs. It is intended to give the reader a thorough background on the device technology behind IXYS IGBTs. The ...

What Is a Transistor, and How Does It Work?
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 off ...
Physicists at the University of California, Riverside have received a $1.85 million research grant to work on "magnetologic gates," a brand new computing building block made from graphene and magnetic ...
Over the recent weeks here at Hackaday, we’ve been taking a look at the humble transistor. In a series whose impetus came from a friend musing upon his students arriving with highly developed ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Purdue University engineers have new information contradicting the most dire predictions about the imminent demise of Moore's Law, a general rule that is central to the ...
